Teaching and Learning for Student Success in Higher Education

Celebrating best practice and development to support the achievement of sustainable teaching excellence.

In the rapidly changing higher education sector, the decisions about how and where we teach, and structure the student educational experience in higher education, have never been more important. Navigating the combined impact of AI, the cost-of-living crisis and student engagement in a post-pandemic context or promoting a strong sense of belonging and addressing retention, brings these decisions into sharper focus.

Our portfolio will help you build or refresh your pedagogy throughout your career and offers practical strategies and tools to enhance student success through all aspects of the student experience including transitions, curriculum design and development, enterprise and employability, assessment, engagement and inclusion, sustainability and much more

We are committed to working with you to help deliver on your priorities and ambitions by supporting you to address the developmental barriers that could be impacting you or your team.

Shaped by your feedback, our Teaching and Learning for Student Success in Higher Education portfolio for 2024-25 offers a range of opportunities for supporting professional development and enhancing practice.
