Annual Report 2011/12 5 ONE OF THE HIGHLIGHTS OF THE YEAR-LONG CELEBRATIONS HAS UNDOUBTEDLY BEEN THE OPENING OF SEVERAL IMPRESSIVE NEW BUILDINGS FOR OUR STUDENTS AND STAFF. OVER THE SUMMER OF 2012 THE FINISHING TOUCHES WERE BEING MADE TO THE NEW STUDENTS’ UNION BUILDING AND UNIVERSITY ACCOMMODATION, ST GEORGE’S CENTRE IN CANTERBURY.

6 Canterbury Christ Church University Pete Mercer, Vice-President of the National Union of Students (Welfare), praised the University’s commitment to enhancing the student experience:

“The opening of this exciting and innovative new building marks a new era for Canterbury Christ Church Students’ Union, a body full of ambition, potential and promise; and marks a clear commitment by the university towards the student experience, student voice and the vibrant community it gives a home to.

“The new education landscape offers great challenges for both the institution and the Students’ Union. New funding arrangements and the introduction of market forces means that difficult but vital decisions must be made. But I’m encouraged by the strong partnership that you clearly have, which gives me great confidence that the decisions you make will be the right ones and in the right interests.

“This is a partnership between a competitive, ambitious institution that values its students (as citizens and as a vital part of both the academic and local community), and a progressive Students’ Union with a talented staff and officer team that demonstrates strong leadership and a firm sense of duty to the students it represents.”

• Local businesses benefited from the £15m construction project

• St George’s Centre took 490,000 hours to build, employing more than 200 local people

• Students were fully involved in all aspects of the design process

As the University moves into its next academic year, it also opens the refurbished St Gregory’s Centre for Music and the Maxwell Davies building – both creating first class music rehearsal and performance facilities for students and visiting musicians.

Annual Report 2011/12 7 | ALUMNI CELEBRATION DAY For the first time in the history of Christ Church, former students across five decades joined us to celebrate our Golden Jubilee year. Nearly 1,000 alumni and their guests gathered at our Canterbury Campus to be reunited with friends and former staff, sharing special memories of their time at the University. A gallery of photographs submitted by alumni are available online by visiting: www.canterbury.ac.uk/AboutUs/GoldenJubilee/GoldenGallery

| CONCERT IN CANTERBURY CATHEDRAL A concert in Canterbury Cathedral was a perfect prelude to the opening of St Gregory’s Centre for Music and the Maxwell Davies building. As a passionate supporter of regional arts and culture, it was an imperative to put music at the heart of our year-long celebrations. The concert in March brought together current and former music students, and professional musicians associated with the University’s Music Department. The Canterbury Christ Church Choral Society and the 2012 Orchestra performed Mozart’s Requiem Mass in D minor and The Armed Man by Karl Jenkins under the direction of former Director of Music Grenville Hancox.

| OLYMPIC TRAINING The nation held its breath in anticipation of two historic 2012 events over the summer - the Olympic and Paralympic Games. Christ Church was privileged to host the Puerto Rico Olympic Team as they trained for the international event in London. More than 35 athletes, trainers and medical staff from Puerto Rico stayed at the University for two weeks in the lead up to the Games. Competitors in boxing and athletics used the University’s first class sporting facilities, including the sports and exercise science laboratories, for performance analysis. Kent was recognised as being among the counties with the most nations to sign up Olympic squads. OUR JUBILEE YEAR

8 Canterbury Christ Church University | BBC RADIO 4’S ANY QUESTIONS? Jonathan Dimbleby was joined by a panel of eminent guests when BBC Any Questions broadcast live from Augustine House in April. The news and politics panel show drew an audience of 350 to the University’s Augustine Hall for a lively discussion with the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, Iain Duncan Smith; Labour Peer and former Cabinet minister, Andrew Adonis; Nobel prize winner and Fellow of the Royal Society, biologist Sir John Sulston; and public policy editor of The Economist magazine, Anne McElvoy. Thanks to an enthusiastic audience, the broadcast touched on important topics from the state of the economy, to world population challenges and the Government’s benefits policy. A summary of the broadcast can be accessed here: www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01ghgtb

| IN JUBILEE VISIT The Jubilee celebrations continued with a special visit from the University’s former Chancellor, and former Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams. The Archbishop met students from the University’s Politics and International Relations course, before attending a question and answer session open to all staff and students. During the open question and answer session, the Archbishop explored topics such as the importance of religious education within the national curriculum and how it can help build an understanding and respect of different religions; the role of Christian faith in a new world order; and its responsibility in helping to promote religious tolerance and equal civil rights for all. Dr Williams was joined on his visit by the Primates of the Indian Ocean, Most Revd Ian Ernest; of Rwanda, the Most Revd Onesphore Rwaje; and of Southern Cone, Most Revd Hector (Tito) Zavala.

| INVESTORS IN PEOPLE AWARD Over the summer, the University secured an Investors in People (IiP) award. The assessment, which followed an earlier Staff Survey in which 71% of staff participated (exceeding the national average for staff survey response rates), highlighted the high levels of engagement across our staff community. The IiP assessors stated they were impressed “by the motivation and overall enthusiasm of staff, particularly given the current challenges facing Higher Education, and their commitment to the change agenda”. The IiP standard sets a level of good practice for improving an organisation’s performance through its people. OUR JUBILEE YEAR

Christ Church has always embraced partnership opportunities. Its distinctiveness lies in the breadth and diversity of the people, organisations and sectors it works with. In fact, University life, in many ways, is dependent on working in partnership with others. Our partners provide placements for trainee teachers, nurses and social care workers; internships for aspiring students and graduates; cultural and educational opportunities for our community; and access to fascinating areas of academic research.

As the former Archbishop of Canterbury and University Chancellor, Dr Rowan Williams, recently observed: “Canterbury Christ Church University is profoundly rooted in issues which affect people’s lives” (Colleges and Universities of the Annual Lecture, 2012). Our research is firmly linked to issues at the heart of this country’s public life – from education to health, social care, families and communities. Yet it also connects with global issues, contributing to new perspectives and wisdom.

20 Canterbury Christ Church University RESEARCH WITH GROUND BREAKING A LASTING IMPACT OLYMPIC RESEARCH A highlight of the 2012 national calendar has undoubtedly been the Olympic and Paralympic Games. A leading light in Olympic and Paralympic research, Christ Church has been in the international media headlines for its far reaching work in this field.

The University was awarded two prestigious accolades at the Podium Awards, an inaugural celebration recognising the very best of London 2012 projects across further and higher education.

Christ Church received a Gold award for research by Professor Jan Burns that has directly influenced the re-inclusion of athletes with learning disabilities into the Paralympic Games.

A Bronze award was also presented to Professor Mike Weed and his team for Olympic Physical Activity, Sport and Health (OPASH) legacy research, funded by the Department of Health, Sport England and the Economic and Social Research Council for London 2012.

Canterbury Christ Church University was the only institution in the UK to have two projects shortlisted in the Exceptional Research Contribution, which is sponsored by Research Councils UK. Both pieces of research beat off stiff competition from over 230 nominated projects.

Christ Church Professor of Clinical Psychology, Jan Burns, appeared in the international media in the run up to the Paralympic Games describing research which led to the classification of athletes with learning disabilities and their re-inclusion into the Paralympic Games.

Meanwhile, Dr Dikaia Chatziefstathiou, Reader in Olympic Studies and the Social Analysis of Sport at Christ Church and the inaugural winner of the Coubertin Prize (2008), was awarded the prestigious title Scientist of the Year (2011-12). Awarded by the Hellenic Association of Sport Management for academic excellence, the selection criteria included international standing and esteem in the area of Olympic research; record of significant publications and academic leadership in groups and networks in the UK and worldwide.

“There is a huge academic interest in Victorian women writers but amazingly no research centre devoted to them. We are interested in telling women’s stories, their lives and their writing.

“We want to be a focus for innovative research in the field and bring together scholars from around the world who are working in this area and also bring together researchers whose work may be complementary. By doing so we would like to form a more complete picture of women’s media and literary networks.”
