Actions to Improve retention Sample Clauses

Actions to Improve retention. Improvement of retention rates is a strategic priority of the University as it remains below benchmark across all retention indicators as detailed in Table 4 below. Significant work was undertaken in 2014/15 to improve retention, including investment in a pioneering year-long module for all new entrants, which will develop through their journey with the University to encompass success and employability outcomes. This is supported by the development of a data dashboard for programme leaders which seeks to highlight at the earliest opportunity students not engaging with their programme and additional investment in academic advisors to intervene with additional support and guidance as necessary. These activities have now become embedded and will continue through the next 3 year cycle, with the impact being regularly monitored. This prioritisation of resource reflects the resolute efforts the University continues to make in order to deliver an inclusive student experience, combined with high quality academic and pastoral support, targeted financial support, and close monitoring of student performance.
