The Student Success (EDI) Project are delighted to present a special one-day Staff Symposium, in which we look at the ‘what, why and how’ of addressing the Black and Minority Ethnic student attainment gap at the University of Kent. Delegates will hear:

‘Why‘ we need to address attainment gaps, and potential consequences for the University of Kent if we don’t

‘How’ Student Success interventions are supporting students and impacting attainment gaps in Student Success Project Schools

‘What’ the University of Kent and your school needs to do to reduce attainment gaps, and ‘when’ you should take action

Who should attend?   All University of Kent staff – we can ALL do something to reduce attainment gaps.

Event booking information:

 Delegates may attend either the morning or afternoon sessions, or both.

A buffet lunch and poster exhibition will provide networking opportunities, with Student Success Project School staff on hand to discuss interventions in their respective schools, highlighting ‘what is working’ but also what challenges they have faced.
