Student Inclusion Team

We provide advice and support to staff, so you can help all students feel that they are part of an inclusive and supported community.

Supporting staff to develop good practice

Please contact us for advice on best practice, regulations and policies about student inclusion and supporting diversity.

You can also read our guidance on how to help and support students.

Supporting students from underrepresented groups

An important part of an inclusive community is helping students to take up opportunities on offer. If you think any of your students may benefit from these services or schemes, tell them about them or  contact us yourself, for advice.

Black Asian Minority Ethnic (BAME) students

We support and advise staff and students who are interesting in helping to create a more inclusive university for minority ethnic students. This can include developing initiatives and events, reviewing policy and procedures or helping set strategy.

Our Be More Empowered for Success programme partners with minority ethnic students who want to work with the university to improve the experiences of minority ethnic students. These student advocates are paid to provide consultation on, and help to develop programmes, curriculums, and services.
