Academic Advice
The SRC can offer advice and representation for a number of academic problems.
Academic Appeals
You can appeal by letter against various decisions that affect your study if you believe you have grounds for appeal. The rules relating to appeals are listed in the University Calendar.
See also the advice centre’s information on academic appeals.
University Disciplinary Procedures
If you have allegedly breached the University regulations in some way and discipline procedures against you have begun, the SRC can advise and support you.
Formal Complaints Procedure
If you have a complaint, the first step is to talk to your Class Representative. If you can’t find your Class Rep, let a member of the Departmental staff know about your complaint.
If you want to make a Formal Complaint, the procedure for this is listed in the University Calendar. The workers at the Advice Centre will also be able to give you information, work with you in the preparation of your Formal Complaint letter, and if necessary represent you.
Fitness to Practice
If you are involved in a procedure relating to either Fitness to Practice or Professional Practice Advisory Panel, the SRC can give help and advice.
For further information and advice about any of the above issues, please contact or call into The Advice Centre for a confidential discussion with an Advice Worker.
