Chapter 3 – Policy Implications for Gaelic - University of Edinburgh

Enhancement
Enhancing Student Support
ELIR
The Committee reviewed a series of enhancement reports from
the three colleges on a regular basis.
The Committee took oversight of the scoping, developing and
planning for the Enhancing Student Support project and
established SSIG to oversee the implementation of the project.
Key work packages and a project plan are in place and
monitoring and reporting mechanisms established.
Role descriptors for Dean of Students, Personal Tutors, Student
Support Officers were developed and the Academic and
Pastoral Support Standards and Guiding Principles were revised
for 2012/13.
The Committee had oversight, together with the Steering Group,
of preparation for the successful Enhancement-Led Institutional
Review by the Quality Assurance Agency. The review resulted
in an outcome of ‘confidence’ with no caveats, the highest level
of outcome possible.
LTC also supported Enhancement-Led Institutional Review
activities and subsequent development work.
