The project area is the Peninsula of Devon and Cornwall, two neighbouring counties in the South West of England with a combined population of 1,664,500, 1,135,000 in Devon and 529,500 in Cornwall. Both counties have a rural element, a strong maritime heritage, are tourist regions and important retirement locations. The Peninsula area embraces numerous heritage sites, national parks and some of the nation’s finest tourist sites, notably the internationally renowned Eden Project. Devon and Cornwall share significant common features and have similar challenges and ambitions. In terms of administration, Cornwall has a single unitary authority whilst Devon consists of a County Council with 8 local government districts and 2 separately administered Unitary Authorities. Both Devon and Cornwall are actively engaged with the South West Regional Development Authority (SWRDA) and the Government Office of the South West (GOSW). Whilst the area’s attractiveness as a rural location is a positive feature, its distance and remoteness from the rest of England creates logistical problems for businesses wishing

    The University of Exeter - Student Protection Plan 2018/19 Provider’s Name: University of Exeter Provider’s UKPRN: 10007792 Legal Address: Northcote House, The Queen’s Drive, Exeter EX4 4QJ Contact point for enquiries about the student protection plan: Christopher Lindsay, Director of Compliance, Governance and Risk ([email protected]; 01392 723016) 1. Introduction The University of Exeter (the University) is deeply committed to excellence in teaching and learning and ensuring that all who have the potential to achieve can attend the University and reach this potential. The University has 37 disciplines in 6 colleges: Humanities, Engineering, Mathematics and Physical Sciences, Life and Environmental Sciences, Social Sciences and International Studies, the Business School and the Medical School. All colleges are present at the Streatham (Exeter) and Penryn (Cornwall) campuses, while St Luke’s (Exeter), Wonford (Exeter) and Truro (Cornwall) offer specialist provision. The Penryn campus is shared with Falmouth University. The University is cognisant of its duties under the Higher Education and Research Act 2017, which requires higher education institutions to maintain a Student Protection Plan to protect students’ interests in the case of material change, e.g. programme changes, suspensions, closures, or institutional closure. The University will always aim to ensure that there are no material changes to a student’s experience while at university. However this is not always possible due to a number of factors, some of which may be beyond the University’s control. Therefore this Student Protection Plan looks to detail the University’s plans for material changes and how it would mitigate for such changes.
