An assessment of the range of risks to the continuation of study for your students, how those risks may differ based on your students’ needs, characteristics and circumstances, and the likelihood that those risks will crystallise Staffordshire University is a modern, relevant and vocationally inspired institution, working with industry to support regional economic growth and provide opportunities for a diverse student body. We have built on our strong heritage and mission and, as “The Connected University”, we continue to deliver innovative and applied learning, develop talented people and connect our communities to opportunities that will support them to improve economically, societally and culturally. The University is organised into five Schools: o Staffordshire Business School (SBS) o Digital, Technologies and Arts (DTA) o Health and Social Care (HSC) o Law, Policing and Forensics (LPF) o Life Sciences and Education (LSE) The School subject combinations reflect employer needs for graduates with broader skills, knowledge and an agility. Underpinned by a connected curriculum approach, the University is working in partnership with students to be active, digital, global citizens. The University has a diverse student population with a percentage of local and regional students. We have a relatively small number of students from out-side of the UK and are therefore not over exposed to the withdrawal from the European union or changes in Home Office immigration regulations.

When I’m not at Keele I spend my time with my horses, dogs and family. P8 P10 John Easom: I studied at Keele back in 1980-1981. After twenty years in the Civil Service I moved on to international trade development and then finally got back to Keele in P12 P14 2005. This is the best job of my life.

By contrast she has described activism as public and explicit arguing that a dichotomy or separation often exists between the two. The Plastic Ceiling Project aims to link these two spaces by using social media to offer an opportunity for women to share their everyday (private) lived experiences of balancing responsibilities for mothering, work and study and thus to (publicly) highlight participants’ collective perceived inequalities and provide a platform for activism. This initial small- scale pilot study explores the methods of photo-elicitation and blogging in order to create such a platform, allowing participants to highlight and discuss commonalities within their experiences. Rather than aiming to “solve” problems for participants, this methodology aims to empower individuals by allowing them to create a shared reality together, co- create knowledge and to give them a vehicle to discuss and resolve difficulties and challenges collectively.
