The Trust is committed supporting students throughout their studies with us and to enabling them to reach their target academic awards. Through its established governance and review processes, the Trust assures the ongoing sustainability and quality of its programmes. It actively manages risks around education delivery including availability of resources (staffing, rooms, finances, IT and technical) to ensure, wherever possible, courses run as planned and as advertised.

The Trust does not have degree awarding powers, so it has partnerships with universities who validate and award its degree programmes. In the Trust’s partnership arrangements, the interests of students are paramount and both sides will always seek to enact solutions to issues which allow students to satisfactorily complete their studies.

This plan sets out how the Trust manages risk around delivery of its education programmes and sets out actions which would be taken if there was a threat to the commencement or continuation of your studies. It describes how we would communicate with you and how you would be supported if any of the events described were to come about.
