  • Falmouth University Access and Participation Plan 2020-21 to 2024-25
    Falmouth University Access and Participation Plan 2020-21 to 2024-25 Introduction Falmouth University (Falmouth) is an anchor institution in Cornwall, fully engaged with the County’s economic, skills and enterprise agendas. The University makes a significant contribution to delivering higher skills to the county, alongside documented employment and economic benefits. Falmouth is committed to ensuring that students from all backgrounds can benefit from a Falmouth education, which facilitates their successful introduction to and participation in local and wider employment markets. Falmouth believes that it has a unique opportunity to ‘bridge’ the specialist creative disciplines to broader school subjects, as well as providing the benefits of studying at a smaller provider. Broadening this ambition locally and nationally, particular in the most deprived areas, is a priority. This is part of a commitment to sector priorities, and advocacy for the creating and performing arts as critically valuable education and career pathways for the future economy. This is enshrined in the Falmouth 2030 Strategy. As confirmed by its ‘Gold’ Teaching Excellence Framework award, Falmouth meets the highest standards for teaching quality, student retention, and graduate outcomes. While these standards provide an excellent foundation for success, Falmouth has set a vision for continuous improvement across the student lifecycle. The University’s ambitions over the coming years are to further understand and improve performance in areas that have also been highlighted as priorities at the national level, and address gaps in access and attainment for its target students. 1 Assessment of performance Falmouth University campuses are situated in Penryn and Falmouth, in Cornwall. The county is coastal, largely rural and 1 has a population of 536,000 dispersed across the region.
