NAPIER/WIDERACCESS Retention and progression Direct entrants, in general, have lower pass rates Support strategies: - bridging module - orientation programmes - Academic Support Advisers - study support - student guides - student mentoring

NAPIER/WIDERACCESS Implications for institutions Does the institution have a policy on partnership working? What strategy is appropriate for the institution? Who is responsible for planning and co-ordination across the institution and how are they supported? What help do staff need in developing collaborative agreements and business plans?

NAPIER/WIDERACCESS Implications for institutions Does the learning, teaching and assessment strategy encompass the needs of direct entrants? What additional information and training do staff need? What student support mechanisms are in place and how are they resourced? Do we have adequate processes for tracking and monitoring students and evaluating the results?
