We know that when students engage with their course they do better. This is why we regularly review your academic engagement and will reach out if we are concerned.
Our aim is to support you to re-engage in your studies if you are having difficulties so that you can make reasonable academic progress and adhere to any regulatory or legal requirements of your course.
If you are contacted and we talk to you about low engagement, we mean:
- Your overall attendance over a period of time is below our current intervention level
- You have missed mandatory sessions
- You have missed a coursework submission or exam, without an approved extension.
We contact you about these categories because they are signs that you might need support. By talking to you about your engagement, we want to make sure that you are okay and help you make informed decisions about your situation and how you can manage your studies going forward.
It is important that you regularly check Brightspace and your BU email inbox so that you are up to date and can respond to any required actions in time.
You can find out more about our engagement review process and why engaging in your studies is important on our BU webpages.
