STUDENT ASSOCIATION

What is a Student Association Ambassador?

The role of Ambassador is a really important role within the Student Association.  It is essential for the Student Association to find out how Students feel about their overall College experience.  However, as there are between 6000-8000 Students it is almost impossible for the Student President and Vice President to speak to every Student.  This is why we have Ambassadors.  Ambassadors are a team of 20-30 Students who can help us to speak to you, our Students. 

Ambassadors will visit full time classes, schools classes and even evening classes, to speak to students about their experiences.  They will use a document to help support them with this and so they know what questions to ask and how to record your answers.  This process is called SPARKLE.  The reason why we called it SPARKLE was be want to make our College Sparkle, and essentially ensure you have the best possible experience.  Being an Ambassador is an excellent opportunity to learn new skills, meet new people, add to your CV or UCAS applications and really make a positive impact on College life.  Click here for a full description

Sparkle is the Student Association evaluation tool providing quantitative and qualitative data.

This tool supports Students in being able to provide feedback about their College experience.

We carry our SPARKLE in November/ December and March/April each year

The Student Association is responsible for collating the data and issuing the information to all curriculum and service centres for continuous improvement purposes.

We then work in partnership in order to form a continuous improvement action plan.

We all want to ensure that Student feedback is at the forefront of decisions.
