Fred Rolland - Head of Joint Honours Scheme

The Joint Honours Scheme is a University-wide programme that allows students to build a degree that comprises two or three subjects in an integrated and planned manner. The modular nature of the Scheme allows students to study in a variety of patterns over varying timescales. We have an experienced team of academic counsellors who guide and support all students throughout their programme.

Julie Stone - Business Development Manager

Our range of curriculum and innovative frameworks provides unique and distinctive learning opportunities.  The creation of the School allows us to leverage our ability to capitalise on our strengths. We are able to expand employer engagement with bespoke provision; and provide a distinctiveness in the global market through strategic partnerships promoting our flexible learning opportunities.

Tee Holden - Administrative Manager

It's important that we have administrative systems in place to support our students and the flexible nature of the School presents challenges in this respect. We aim to ensure that all of our students either directly, or indirectly through our partners, have access to relevant information which underpins and supports their study. We work closely with colleagues in other departments and particular the Student Support and Information Services Department to ensure a first class customer service approach throughout the School of Flexible and Partnership Learning.
