Idea
Timetable Transparency
Category: Student Support
A transparent timetabling system would give students access to their class and exam schedules much earlier in the academic year. This helps students plan part-time work, travel, and personal commitments without last-minute clashes. It also supports carers, international students, and those with health needs who require advance notice. Clear, early timetables reduce stress, increase fairness, and make academic life easier to balance with living costs and responsibilities. By implementing this, the university would show it values students’ time and wellbeing while improving satisfaction and retention.
Comments
Does this mean more transparency about how the timetables are decided or is the idea asking for timetables to be published earlier?
Timetables to be published earlier to allow for students to plan in accordance with their personal situations
