Hello Student,


Welcome back!

We hope that you've had a great vacation and are feeling refreshed and ready for the start of term. 

As your Student Communications Team, we'll be keeping you up to date with the latest at Warwick through your student newsletter, from upcoming events, to useful updates and exciting opportunities that you can get involved in. 

 

Gold. Together. TEF 2023 Gold

Triple gold for teaching excellence

We’re extremely proud that Warwick has been awarded triple gold in a national award that recognises teaching excellence.  
 
The Teaching Excellence Framework (TEF) is a national scheme run by the Office for Students (OfS), which rates Higher Education providers for excellence above the set of minimum requirements for quality and standards for undergraduate students.  
 
Not only was Warwick awarded the gold standard for its student experience and outcomes, we were also given gold, the highest level available for overall teaching excellence. This is a real moment in our University’s history confirming our excellence across the board in both research and education. Together, we can be really proud of what we have achieved.
