Every year the Students’ Representative Council hosts the Student Teaching Awards (aka the STAs): awards that recognise and celebrate the incredible efforts staff and students put towards their teaching, support, and representation.
These awards are organised each year by the SRC and help to recognise the great work of some amazing members of staff. The STAs highlight best practice on the campus and, more importantly, are an opportunity for students to say thank you to members of staff who have shaped their learning experience.
The various categories are chosen to display the best work happening in the university—from superb student reps to captivating classroom teaching, amazing administrators, and fantastic dissertation support.
Thank you to all the members of our university community who support students and to everyone who submits a nomination!
