Subject:        End of programme feedback forms

Origin:           Programme Quality Team

 

The Programme Quality Team recommends that the University requirement on departments to collect end of programme feedback on an annual basis be lifted.

From informal soundings, it is understood that most departments find it difficult to collect end of programme feedback, because of problems in finding a suitable time for administering the feedback questionnaires to achieve a reasonable response rate.  Many have already stopped trying, especially since the introduction of the NSS which covers similar ground. 

PQ Team would suggest that those departments that wish to collect end of programme (or end of year) feedback from their students be free to do so, on the understanding they would organise it themselves.
