2. Student Consultation

Institutional Protocol (extract) Institutional Aims for Section 6.1 Section 6.1 of the HEAR includes factually-based, non-evaluative details of extra-curricular student activities or achievements that the University is in a position to verify. The University aims to give recognition to additional student activities which broaden intellectual, civic, socio-cultural or international understanding, activities which demonstrate responsibility, leadership, excellence or innovation, and activities which contribute to the University community. Inclusion Criteria for Section 6.1 In order to be eligible for inclusion in Section 6.1, an activity or achievement must fulfil all of the following criteria (this list represents a selection of the full criteria): 1. Correspond to one of the three categories identified in the official HEAR Guidance, namely: Additional Awards (accredited performance outside the academic curriculum); Additional Recognised Activities (unaccredited activities which represent achievement and/or learning); University, Professional and Departmental Prizes (both academic and non-academic). 2. Be institutionally verifiable before students have completed their academic programme. 3. Not be a direct part of the academic curriculum. 4. Be open to all students at the University or all students within a specific academic cohort, with the exception of certain representative roles which may be restricted to ensure democratic representation of the student population as a whole.

Challenges: Identifying Achievements Robust quality controls

Student Feedback: 6.1 to be earned Extensive commitments Retain independence Employability

Example Contextualising Statement: President of a Society Committee (to be accompanied by a description of their society) The President has overall responsibility for the society and should lead the society committee in its decision-making. S/he should ensure that all other committee members are fulfilling their roles effectively by motivating them, delegating tasks and providing advice and support where necessary. S/he should act as a spokesperson of the society and as a link between the society and Students' Union staff.

This is such a great initiative! Its more important than ever for students to show skills rather than just marks. Comment on Twitter, February This is a progressive step at a time when there has never been such fierce competition amongst graduates. Forge Press (student newspaper), November 2012.
