We know that when students engage with their course they do better. To help support you we regularly monitor your academic engagement and will contact you if we are concerned. Our aim is always to support you to re-engage with your studies if you are having difficulties. In academic year 2024/25 we are following a new process to review and follow-up on low engagement.
To allow us to offer the right support during your degree, you are required to
- Engage with your studies.
This includes attending classes regularly, attending every mandatory session, submitting coursework before the deadline and attending exams. - Log your attendance at classes by checking in to our attendance capture system.
You can find out how to log your attendance on the BU website. - Tell us about anything which is affecting your engagement.
You can find information about who to contact and managing absences from university on the BU website. - Check your BU emails and respond if we contact you about your engagement.
We will tell you what action you then need to take. Find out when and how we act on low engagement on the BU website.
Taking these actions will help you to get the most out of your time at BU and adhere to our Student Agreement.
We're here to help you achieve your best and support you if there is anything preventing you from participating in your course.
Watch our short video which explains our approach to managing your academic engagement (including attendance) and the steps you need to take.
