Education and Student Experience Team

 

Who we are and what we do

The ESE team work with staff and students in the School of English to ensure that you make the most of the many opportunities that exist at the University to add to your experience outside of your studies.  You will receive regular communications from the team over email and social media to give you important information about your course, events that you might be interested in and the chance to sign up for schemes such as peer mentoring or being a digital ambassador. 

Student voice is an important part of our role. We work with the Student Union to recruit and train student course reps and organise the regular staff/student meetings (known as Learning Community Forums) where we gather and act on your feedback so that our community continues to develop. 

 

Past Events

Wobble Week

Our ESE team organise events in the School for Wobble Week (which takes place early in the Autumn semester). This is a week full of activities for students, with the aim of creating a sense of belonging and community in the University. Last year our activities included ‘crafternoons’ and pumpkin carving.

Lunar New Year Festival - Year of the Dragon

These photos are from our Lunar New Year Festival celebrations. Both students and staff were invited to immerse themselves in the festivities through activities such as a quiz with prize, origami making, an exhibition to learn about the Chinese Zodiac Animals while enjoying some oriental snacks and music.

 

Student Seasonal Poetry Competition

This year, our team organised the Student Seasonal Competition with prizes for the top three places. The competition involved writing a poem inspired by three images provided by us. Our students are so talented!

The ESE team organised a chill out zone in the student common  room,  where students could make a goodie bag full of treats, indulge in some mindful colouring or just have a chat.
