costs/benefits of change FROM: current system supports a notional 2 hours/student/ year. If discontinue then notional saving of £ 350 k (in 2007) for current first year. TO: Student Support Coordinator in each School. Approx £ 300 k (2007) PDT meetings now within module resource envelope so resource neutral potential savings on retention/recruitment costs develop ‘trademark’
We are mindful that no student can be easily categorised and that all students require greater or lesser support to integrate, participate and make the most of their time at X. In particular, we want to focus over the next five years on expanding our support for academic writing for all students and to ensure that we support students to integrate well from the start. (2017)
