Professional Practice Programme
Learning, Teaching and Quality Enhancement provides a proactive, Faculty-facing
professional service that:

   •   Supports academic excellence and innovation;
   •   Drives improvements in the academic experience for all students;
   •   Helps to safeguard the quality and standards of the University.

Introduction
As we move towards the safe re-opening of campus and a more longitudinal approach to
developing digital learning, the general principles of the TEL Toolkit remain and the
Toolkit has been updated to provide further guidance for offering an inclusive, high
quality, blended learning experience for all of our students. The sessions outlined in this
document are aligned with both the TEL Toolkit and the UK Professional Standards
Framework (UKPSF). Staff are also supported with its implementation through:

Inclusive Blended Learning

explores future directions through presentations, scholarly discussion and practical
workshops. Each event will focus on different aspects and is not simply a repeat of a
previous session, although similar themes may emerge.

By using various research methods to explore our teaching practice and its impact on our
students, we are better equipped to adjust our practice to provide the best learning
experiences for our students (UKPSF A5).

Role Development
Our Sharepoint site provides guidance to support the roles of programme leader, module
leader and personal academic tutors. The Programme Leaders’ Forum is a lively
community for sharing concerns, ideas and good practice with a focus on enhancing our
students’ learning experiences.

On the Horizon
There are other sessions that are in the pipeline for which dates are not yet available:

   •     Exam Board Training.
   •     Annual Monitoring Workshops.
   •     Programme Approval & Review Panel Training.

Annual Conference
Having been paused in 2018/19 we hope to hold a University-wide event in 2020/21,
although it may have a different look and feel to previous years. We ask that you keep the
date free in your diaries to accommodate this.
