Your Voice Matters: Get involved with student voice at the School of English

At the School of English, we believe that your opinions and experiences are essential to shaping a positive and supportive learning environment. Student Voice is our way of ensuring that students have a real say in how the School operates and evolves.

Become a Student Representative

By becoming a student rep, you can actively share your views, concerns, and ideas on behalf of your classmates. Student reps play a vital role in connecting students with staff and helping to improve the overall academic experience. Any student can apply to be a rep just by completing a form.

Check the SU website for details. 

Senior Student Reps and the School Teaching Committee 

Senior Student Reps take their voice even further by attending the School Teaching Committee, chaired by the Director of Teaching. This committee is a powerful platform where student feedback is heard at the highest level, enabling real, meaningful change across courses, teaching methods, and resources.

Student Staff Forums

Held three times a year, these forums provide an open space for students and staff to discuss key issues, celebrate successes, and explore opportunities for improvement. Attending these forums means you can directly influence decisions and developments within the School.  Action points are recorded on the Moodle Community pages. 

Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) Committee 

Our commitment to creating a welcoming and inclusive community is supported by the EDI Committee, where student feedback is crucial. Your insights help shape policies and practices that promote equality, diversity, and inclusion—making sure every student feels valued and respected.
