Community of Practice

TLDRoffon

Greenwich is part of a consortium of six Universities who are tackling the issue of the BAME attainment gap by implementing improvement strategies developed at Kingston University. Working closely with the Students Union, we have run various training events, reported to a number of University committees and attended Departmental Meetings. In May 2018, we launched the Community of Practice, where Champions and others from each Department/Directorate can meet together and share their approaches to developing a more inclusive curriculum.

The Community of Practice is a dedicated space for our colleagues to:

  • Collaborate with colleagues from other departments
  • Find solutions to reduce the BAME attainment gap
  • Share good practice
  • Give and receive peer support

To support the Community of Practice, we regularly hold training, networking activities and social events.  On some occasions, external speakers from other institutions are also invited to share their experiences to reduce the attainment gap.

Be the first to know about our activities and join our mailing list, please contact attainmentgap@greenwich.ac.uk. Equally, we welcome any questions, feedback or suggestions.
