Previous Student Feedback

Feedback, Recommendations and Responses

Every unit is reviewed for enhancement each year. At the most recent review, the following staff and student feedback items were identified and recommendations were made.

Feedback from Staff and student feedback

Feedback

Move live classes and workshops to afternoons or evenings

Recommendation

Shifting scheduled workshops to later in the day would better accommodate the large proportion of students who work during standard business hours. This adjustment is likely to improve live attendance, enhance engagement, and provide students with more equitable access to real-time support.

Feedback from Staff and student feedback

Feedback

Update assessment tasks to enhance industry relevance (subject to budget approval)

Recommendation

The current portfolio and CV assessment could be strengthened by incorporating contemporary employability elements such as LinkedIn optimisation, digital branding, or professional networking activities. Embedding these components would increase the practical value of the unit and better align assessment outcomes with current recruitment and selection practices.

Feedback from Staff feedback

Feedback

Continue strengthening communication around support options

Recommendation

Weekly reminders, targeted outreach, and clearer messaging about the purpose and benefits of drop-in sessions should remain a priority. Reinforcing the value of real-time support and providing accessible recordings can further encourage engagement and help reduce non-submissions.
