Access and Participation Plan
The Office for Students (OfS) is the independent regulator for Higher Education in the UK, its role is to work with higher education providers to make sure that students access, succeed and progress beyond higher education.
As part of our registration requirements with the OfS, Access and Participation Plans set out the University’s strategy for continued investment in activities to ensure equality of opportunity in access, success and progression in Higher Education for all underrepresented groups.
