Attending your teaching sessions

Make sure you’re familiar with the UKVI Academic Engagement Monitoring Code of Practice below, which outlines your attendance requirements. Be aware of key university dates specific to your course, and students on taught courses should avoid leaving the UK early during term-time teaching or arriving back late after the vacation period.

Postgraduate researchers should engage fully throughout the academic year, outside of any annual leave or university closure days, and should ensure supervision records are up to date.
