In August 2024 the Student Computing Policy was re-published. The policy has been significantly rewritten to ensure that the policy reflects current practices, is more comprehensive and easier to understand.
The main changes are:
a) A ‘purpose’ section has been added to the top of the main policy to ensure consistency with our other policies and some of the sections have been moved around for the same reason.
b) Similarly, the ‘Commitment to Equality, diversity and inclusion’ and ‘Safe Space reporting’ sections have been moved to above the glossary.
c) The ‘Scope’ section has been updated with the latest information for Microcredential learners.
d) References to new policies relating to students in secure environments and those under legal licence restrictions, conditions or orders
e) Some links have been updated.
f) Some sections have been made clearer.
g) Some glossary entries have been added or updated.
