Intercollegiate Forum: inclusive collegiate education and environments new [Places] 14:00 - 17:00 Student Services Centre, Exams Hall, Room AG03d

Cambridge undergraduate education is distinctive, and Colleges as academic communities are key to students' educational experience. As Cambridge admits a more representative population of undergraduates, this Forum provides an opportunity to reflect on ways in which collegiate environments and collegiate education can contribute to all students’ becoming increasingly proficient in their learning, in managing curricular and extra-curricular commitments and in developing a sense of agency and ownership over their education.

The Forum is for College academic and professional staff and students, including (but not limited to) senior tutors and deputy senior tutors, directors of studies, supervisors, librarians, academic skills tutors, heads of wellbeing and JCR officers.

The Forum will include a panel of invited Cambridge and external contributors, as well as opportunities to share experiences and to reflect on ways of making positive differences to students’ experiences and outcomes in 2023-24 and beyond. The Forum is organised by the Cambridge Centre for Teaching & Learning as part of CCTL’s support for the collegiate University’s commitments to develop more inclusive educational environments and practices and to eliminate differentials in students’ assessment outcomes which cannot be explained through factors such as previous education and attainment (‘awarding gaps’).


Intercollegiate Forum Pre-event survey

Please could we ask all participants to complete the Intercollegiate Forum pre-event survey by Monday 12 June 2023, please see link: Intercollegiate Forum Pre-Event Survey


Please note: this Forum provides an opportunity to extend discussions at an earlier Forum (‘First-year undergraduate academic induction and development’, 3 March 2023), during which we explored how first-year students begin to earn how to learn within a Cambridge context. However, our Forum in June is a self-contained occasion and there is no requirement to have taken part in the March meeting in order to participate in June.

The Academic Career Pathway (Teaching & Scholarship) has been introduced to recognise the contribution of colleagues whose primary responsibilities are teaching-focussed. This workshop provides an opportunity to learn of the aims and procedures of the new promotions processes for Teaching & Scholarship staff, to reflect on how scholarship may be evidenced in applications for promotions and to consider how to develop a personal case for promotion under the appropriate Scheme.
