What is a Student Voice Forum? Why should I attend a Student Voice F<\/strong>orum?<\/strong> What to expect at a Student Voice Forum?<\/strong> How do I attend a Student Voice Forum?<\/strong> When is the next Student Voice Forum?<\/strong>
\n<\/strong>Student Voice forums are informal and friendly spaces where students, representatives, academics, and staff come together to discuss a wide range of topics, from course concerns to campus life.\u00a0You don\u2019t need to be an expert, just bring your thoughts. Or if you prefer, you can ask your Student Rep<\/strong><\/a> to raise something on your behalf (even anonymously!).<\/p>\n
\nYour feedback matters. Student Voice Forums give you the chance to share your thoughts on what\u2019s working, what\u2019s not, and what could be better – directly with the people who can make change happen.\u00a0Contributing to the Student Voice Forums is a great way to build confidence and develop valuable communication skills like public speaking, active listening, and teamwork. It\u2019s a great opportunity to have your say about your KBS course, help shape wider University policies, connect with academics and fellow students, support your peers, and contribute to the student voice and experience.<\/p>\n
\nThe forum provides students with the opportunity to discuss and raise a variety of topics, as well as key updates from academic staff. Each forum is attended by a member of the Student Experience<\/strong><\/a> team, who is there to support both students and academic staff. There’s no need to take notes; the Student Experience team will minute the forum and send out a summary after the meeting, along with key actions. The team will then work on supporting any actions generated with the relevant academic staff and student reps.<\/p>\n
\nYou\u2019ll receive a calendar invitation to the forum detailing how to join and the agenda. You don\u2019t have to be a Student Rep<\/strong><\/a> to attend; however, if you want to raise feedback directly and represent other KBS students and their feedback, one of the best ways to do this is by signing up to become a KBS Student Rep. This is a fantastic opportunity to gain invaluable skills and support your school and fellow students. It means that other students can reach out to you with their feedback and questions. It\u2019s also worth noting all the great rewards and recognition<\/strong><\/a> of becoming a Student Rep with Kent Students\u2019 Union<\/strong><\/a>, including Employability Points and Student Rep of the Year Awards! But if it\u2019s not for you \u2013 no pressure! Just come along as you are, and don\u2019t forget you can raise any feedback with your school rep too.

We look forward to seeing you there and working with you this academic year, supporting your student voice and improving your student experience here at Kent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
