School staff win a Lord Dearing Teaching Award

The Lord Dearing Award recognises outstanding achievements in enhancing the student learning experience. Matthew Boyd, Claire Anderson, Vibhu Solanki, Kimberley Sonnex and Sarah Brydges have together won for the development of our new 4^th year module, Pharmacy Leadership and Management (PLM), a 12 day team-based student-centred simulation of pharmacy practice delivered in a dedicated teaching suite. The module gives students the opportunity to drive forward as the future leaders of pharmacy. Designed with internal and external stakeholders to maximize learning and employability, this unique module facilitates students to be the best they can be. The awarding panel noted, in particular, the creative and innovative methods employed in designing a module that is highly relevant for students.
