Summary of Changes from Previous Version

In order to strengthen the policy expectations and procedural elements that should underpin all School processes and practices, the document was revised into two distinct documents: a policy document, and a procedures document. The procedures were largely transposed from the original Policy document to this new format, with revisions made where required as suggested through the pre consultations and closed consultation. The Office of General Council provided extensive feedback with reference to the inclusion and implications of paid Placements as part of this process.

The revised policy was approved at Academic Senate [AS 23/01:3] on 24th February 2023.
