Current performance Sample Clauses

Current performance. The University currently offers a range of bursaries and other types of financial support to students as part our approved Access Agreement. These have been targeted at students with particular financial circumstances or are designed to encourage participation and raise aspirations from low participation neighbourhoods through partnership with schools and colleges. There is evidence that some of our more targeted bursaries such as those for care leavers might be significant, as are the funds which are distributed in response to evidenced circumstances of hardship.

Current performance. The University has a strong national reputation for recruiting students from a broad range of social backgrounds and securing high rates of progression and retention. This is clearly evidenced by the University's performance against HEFCE PI's for non-continuation following year of entry and projected learning outcomes shown in Figures 2 and 3 below.

Current performance. There are no existing ‘hard’ benchmarks for any of the proposed indicators, but an agreed survey and benchmarking exercise will be carried out to provide baseline data for indicators 1-3 in the 2nd Quarter 2003-4, and reported to the relevant LSPs during Qtr3, 2003-4.

Current performance. The University’s first time undergraduate cohort for 2015/16 is expressed in the following tables. We observed a slight decrease in the 2015/16 performance to meet our location adjusted benchmark for students from low participation neighbourhoods, due to changes in student recruitment trends. Our approach continues to be focused on outreach activities in LPNs as detailed previously. The number of students entering Brunel who are eligible for DSA remains high, exceeding our expected benchmark by a considerable margin, no doubt a function of our dedicated Disability and Dyslexia service. However, the review of DSA eligibility criteria will probably affect this benchmark and we will undertake a review of our performance against this indicator by 2017/18 in the light of our own disability data. In common with much of the sector, efforts to increase the number of mature students have not been successful and the percentage has dropped. The appointment of a co-ordinator in 2016 with responsibility for mature learners is helping to redress the situation.
