York St John University Access & Participation Plan 2019-20 Access & Participation Plan 2019-20 York St John University A history of widening access York St John University has been widening access to higher education since its founding as a Teacher Training College by the Church of England in 1841: “…as the most powerful means of remedying the existing defects in the Education both of the Poor and Middle Classes of Society, to establish a School for the purpose of Training Masters in the Art and Practice of Teaching.” This has underpinned our approach ever since, as can been seen in the development of our latest Strategic Plan.

Developments in Music Technology in British Higher Education Between 2007 and 2018
The discipline that ‘became’: developments in music technology in British higher education between 2007 and 2018. Russ Hepworth-Sawyer, York St John University, Nick Hughes, Robert Smyth Academy & Research Student at Birmingham City University Dawid Ziemba, York St John University Carola Boehm, Staffordshire University Abstract In 2007 Carola Boehm published the introductory article within the first volume of the Journal of Music, Technology & Education entitled ‘The discipline that never was: current developments in music technology in higher education in Britain’. Boehm identified the higher education offerings in music technology at that time. In the ten or so years that have passed since those findings, we’ve witnessed both incredible growth in the HE sector and significant shift in the flavour of programmes on offer. This shift has been seen primarily in the growth of the creative practice-led title of ‘music production’, but not at the expense of traditional ‘music technology’. Boehm’s paper also explored the wider range of subject matters that could be considered within the then term ‘music technology’, whether by an ever-expanding technological backdrop, or through interdisciplinarity. In this paper, we report on the significant changes since then, with some analysis for the future whilst considering the current political challenges for British Higher Education. Introduction On 29th June 2017, York St John University hosted the first Music Production Education Conference (MPEC). Two of the authors Hepworth-Sawyer and Hughes outlined their current research project - titled Music Technology Education Provision & Progression (MTEP) - focussing on the fluidity of music technology education in the UK. Principally MTEP is, and will be, gathering evidence around the matches and mismatches between each level and flavour of traditional music technology education and the progression routes covered by learners.

Access and Participation Plan
Access and participation plan 2020-21 to 2024-25 Submitted August 2019 1 Introduction York St John University has a proud history of widening access and participation in higher education. It was founded as a Teacher Training College in 1841 by the Church of England “as the most powerful means of remedying the existing defects in the education both of the poor and middle classes of society”. Widening access and participation continues to be a central tenet of the institution’s culture, demonstrated through our mission, values, Strategic Plan to 2026, performance metrics and our whole institution approach to equality, diversity and social mobility. This new Access and Participation Plan to 2025 details our latest commitment to widening access and participation. The plan has been formulated by a working group comprising the institution’s leaders, practitioners, analysts and student representatives. It is grounded in a thorough analysis of the Office for Students’ new Access and Participation dataset, which enabled the group to understand our strengths and weaknesses in the national context. The University has developed ‘theory of change’ models for the first time and has used these to align our activities, objectives, intended outcomes and long-term impacts. Fundamentally, the theories of change we have developed will shape our evaluation work so that we know what works and where to invest our resources. Our working group will continue to meet to review progress, learn from evaluation and plan ahead, so that we achieve the aspirations set out in this plan. 2 1. Assessment of performance Presented here is a visual summary of our assessment of our performance on Access and Participation against that of the sector.
