Talks and lectures

As a part of their degree, second-year Literature and History students take part in an annual public conference, where they present a series of papers based around the theme of Rivers, Lakes and Seas.

This lecture will focus on changes in how we talk about race and learning with a specific focus on creative pedagogy, student learning and attainment. It will unpack key themes such as a sense of belonging for staff and students of colour as well as discussing the awarding gap and student experiences.
