This session aims to provide an understanding of the prevalence, myths and stereotypes surrounding sexual violence as a background to learn the skills to appropriately respond to disclosures from students and others. There will be a focus on the practicalities of dealing with someone in distress, what to do in the event of being a first point of disclosure, what questions to ask and what to record. The session will also discuss how to think about risk and will provide an outline of the support and the University and police reporting options available. |

A briefing on the University's Examination Review Procedure. This formal University procedure is used by students to request a review where: - a procedural irregularity in the examination process has adversely impacted on your examination results; or - demonstrable bias or the perception of bias has occurred within the examination process; or - the withdrawal of academic provision, which had adversely impacted on your examination results and of which the Examining Board were not aware [this ground is for students whose assessment results have been adversely affected by industrial action]. Find out or remind yourself what to do if you receive a request to respond to an examination review, or if a student is asking you about requesting an examination review. This session includes case studies and discussion to ensure that examiner decisions are robust. |
