Hear hear ⁦@Charlesknight⁩ It doesn’t work to automatically expect academics to be great personal tutors, not the same skill set. Other staff can be better 👏👏👏 #secretlife23

My sketchnote of the The real risks to equality of opportunity panel session here at #secretlife23

[Aaron Porter @AaronPorter]

Thought provoking start from @jim_dickinson to @Wonkhe #secretlife23.

Huge challenge for HE sector since covid is attendance, research suggests 5 top reasons for absence:

1) health
2) paid employment
3) transport
4) teaching quality/format
5) independent study/assignments

Today we paid our respects and said our farewells to our dear colleague and friend, Dr Phil Ansell. It was lovely to see so many colleagues, past and present, celebrate his life.

Phil - thanks for the laughs, the debates and your passion.

You were the best of us. We miss you.
