The University School Review process is an opportunity to take a ‘deep dive’ view of a School, which will be focussed on data-driven key lines of enquiry. There will no longer be an automatic rolling programme of School Reviews. Instead, there will be a robust annual review process whereby candidates for School Review in any given academic year are discussed in Strategic Planning Meetings (see 1.2 below for more information). The selection criteria for School Reviews is as follows:
Each Review will focus on key lines of enquiry/terms of reference that have arisen as a result of discussions held at round 1 of the University Strategic Planning meetings (SPM1) (these meetings take place in circa October/November each academic year)). The Deputy Vice-Chancellor, in consultation with the University Executive Board will then agree which Schools should be reviewed (circa Dec/January), and the terms of reference for each review. More details can be found in the guidelines below.
