Our first meeting of the academic year 2020/21. The main focus was on the results of the culture survey that took place over August and September. The results are generally positive but with some very clear areas where improvements need to be made. The committee will digest and reflect on the results over the next few meetings, sharing key results with all members of the department and escalating any immediate issues to DMT and other committees.

The committee also discussed the COVID19 impact on students and staff starting the new term in light of the SAGE advice for HEI in early September. This was a request from the DEG Contingency committee and thoughts were fed back to that committee.
