The Curriculum Transformation Programme (CTP) has been working with staff and students to redesign programmes of study, ensuring they function as a whole and empower students with the knowledge, skills and experiences necessary to succeed in an ever-changing world.

Since our last update, the CTP has made significant progress. The team is currently working with eight schools across the university on redesigning their programmes; input from employers and alumni has been gathered along with market insights – design workshops will take place in the next few months.

Before the launch of the CTP a pre-pilot took place in the School of Mathematical Sciences and the redesigned programmes are due to be launched in 2023. The pre-pilot involved a co-creation exercise, in which staff and students designed learning activities and assessment tasks to align with evidence-informed graduate attributes.

Watch the video below to find out more about the co-creation process and the outcomes.

Upcoming workshops

The CTP team is running taster workshops which are available to all staff. These two-hour workshops provide an overview of CTP, contextualise the design principles, and present some of the activities carried out during the Curriculum Vision Workshops.

One attendee recently said, “I can’t express how rare it is to have an event like this where I walked out feeling like I got proper value from the time invested”.

The next workshop will take place on Wednesday 29 March, 2pm-4pm on Jubilee Campus. Sign up here.
