About Us   Events   Help & Information   Get Involved   Talk to us  
There was big news from the House of Lords last week when it was announced that Peers have decoupled the Government’s proposed ‘Teaching Excellence Framework’ from tuition fee rates and the number of international students which universities are allowed to recruit. This is a huge win for students following the NSS Boycott and campaigning from SUs, the NUS and activists on this issue – however, we’re not out of the woods just yet! Since the amendments will likely be subject to further scrutiny in the Commons, we urge Final-Year students to continue boycotting the National Student Survey and withholding their data from Ipsos Mori to send a clear message that students will not be held to ransom.
As we enter the last week of Term 2, we’re recruiting students to sit on the Board of Trustees here at Warwick SU. Student Trustees help oversee the strategic governance and financial sustainability of the SU, as well as ensuring that all the decisions we make are in the best interests of the student body. This is a great opportunity to get a look at what goes on behind-the-scenes at a working charity, and the time commitment is only a few hours per month during term-time – see below for more information about how to apply!
Whatever you’re up to over the vacation period, we wish you all the very best - we’ll still be open for much of the Easter holidays, so keep an eye on the website for full opening hours coming soon!
