Areas for Improvement

We acknowledge that there are areas where we can improve, particularly around assessment and feedback. In the coming year, our priority will be to make marking criteria clearer and to enhance the quality of feedback, ensuring that students receive the guidance they need to achieve their best. We are also dedicated to strengthening our communication and engagement with students, actively working with both new and returning cohorts to ensure their perspectives are valued. This provides us with an important opportunity to reflect on our teaching practices and student support, as we continue to foster a strong and vibrant community at Warwick Law School.

Professor Andrew Williams, Head of Warwick Law School said:

“These results reflect a fantastic collaboration between our students and all our staff. We will continue to strive to improve our teaching provision across the undergraduate programme and the learning initiatives we offer beyond it. And we aim to do so by working together effectively.”

Co-Director of Student Experience Dr Rebecca Munro commented:

"I’m delighted to see such positive NSS results from our students, especially in key areas like teaching and learning resources. We are always looking for ways to improve, and we remain committed to responding to student feedback. Ensuring that all students feel heard and supported is a priority, and we’ll continue working together to further enhance the Warwick Law School experience."
