CASE STUDY Ballet West Gains UK-Wide Competitive Advantage from HESA Student Record and DLHE Survey CASE STUDY Ballet West gains UK-wide competitive advantage from HESA Student record and DLHE survey ABOUT BALLET Why Ballet West chose to become a HESA subscriber WEST SCOTLAND Ballet West became an elective HESA subscriber in 2016/17. As an alternative HE provider in Scotland it has no statutory requirement to Ballet West is an submit data, but because of the competitive advantage it brings, Ballet ambitious ballet West chose to submit individualised data on around 90 undergraduate school based in Argyll, students to HESA. Scotland, which offers full time higher education courses in dance, validated by the Open University. It also runs a variety of outreach classes for students from age two through to adults, including classes for 300 young people throughout Argyll, As with the alternative HE providers that submit data on a statutory basis, four summer schools, Ballet West received two induction visits from HESA in preparation of its and two year-long first data return, and the HESA liaison team continued to support the Associate courses in school through each step of the process. Edinburgh and Glasgow. “We’re looking forward to be able to use the HESA data to show off who we are to prospective students. The HESA data is crucial to the TEF1 , NSS2 and DLHE3 – it seems like a sensible idea to get this right before these become mandatory returns for us.” MIKE ROWELL, ACADEMIC ADMINISTRATOR Higher Education Statistics Agency Limited (HESA) is a company limited by guarantee, registered in England at 95 Promenade, Cheltenham, GL50 1HZ. Registered No. 2766993. Registered Charity No. 1039709. Certified to ISO 27001. The members are Universities UK and GuildHE. Developing competitive advantage Ballet West realised the benefits of inclusion in these national surveys, to support the school’s planning and marketing strategies. In the first year, the school identified some gaps in its data collection which led to updating its enrolment processes. The management team is also mindful of the possibility that the TEF rating could be linked to course fees and is now confident that the school is data-ready should this happen. The process has led Ballet West to see other future benefits of the investment in data collection. The school anticipates being able to better analyse from where their students originate – which will be important when presenting evidence to the Scottish government and comparing the funding status of Scottish and English students.

    Teaching and Learning Conference 2021: Teaching in the spotlight: What is the future for HE curricula? On-demand session abstracts 6-8 July 2021 5Ps: An incremental innovation Dericka Frost and Janet Turley, University of the Sunshine Coast Whilst the move to technology-enabled learning and teaching [TELT] during 2020 transformed higher education course delivery, it exacerbated the digital divide. Students with low confidence, limited internet access, bandwidth and inadequate hardware became even less visible. 5Ps is an innovative student-focused study strategy developed in response to this transition in one pathways program course at an Australian regional university. 5Ps provides inexperienced students with a formula and an explicit step-by-step guide, potentially strengthening their academic self-efficacy and independence regardless of technological inequities. A 40,000 strong force for sustainable development: Affecting change whilst enhancing employability through applied research and the Sustainable Development Goals Dr Jennifer O'Brien, University of Manchester Students at the University of Manchester represent a 40,000-strong force for potential change who want to make a difference. This presentation will critically discuss how we are harnessing the power of our students to affect change through their assessment to the benefit of sustainable development and their employability. We are deploying Education for Sustainable Development in a Living Lab approach framed around the Sustainable Development Goals. The University Living Lab equips and empowers our students with the skills and confidence to affect real change for sustainable development through interdisciplinary applied research projects required by external partners. A brave new world: Has the global pandemic broken the boundaries of tradition and reformed assessment in STEM? Dr Laura Roberts and Dr Joanne Berry, Swansea University For centuries STEM disciplines have relied on traditional, on-site exams to drive learning and knowledge.

  • Arden University Access and Participation Plan 2020-21
    Arden University Access and Participation Plan 2020-21 All data sources in this section are from the OfS Access and Participation dataset. Arden University provides higher education by part-time online distance learning and full-time blended learning through its Study Centres. Its mission is to remove the barriers to higher education, inspire new ways to learn and enrich people and their lives. Arden’s vision is to be known as the University that made higher education more accessible and beneficial to all. Arden University’s belief is that everyone, everywhere has a right to higher education. Its insight is that many people, at different stages of life, are constrained in their ability to study and to progress – constrained by expectation, geography, financial circumstances, other commitments or even just by time. Whilst Arden University does not limit its access and participation strategies to students from BAME backgrounds, students from low higher education participation, low household income and/or low socioeconomic status, mature students or disabled students, data shows that 92.7% of Arden’s UK undergraduate students have at least one of these characteristics, and 80% of our full time students are BAME. Therefore, Arden is a significant and growing provider of access to higher education for the government’s targeted low participation groups. Arden University is making headway in improving access to HE. The focus and priority for our change will be on significantly improving the continuation and success of our students, by supporting them with the many challenges that our distinct community of students face. Since 2016, Arden University has been offering a Full-Time (FT) Blended Learning experience in its study centres located in London (Ealing, Tower Hill, Holborn) and Birmingham and Manchester, whilst it previously offered Distance, Part-Time (PT) provision only.
