Academic Standards Committee - Friday 16 November 2012

Mrs C Omand, Senate Office
At its meeting on 25 May 2012, Academic Standards Committee received an update on progress made during the last 12 months in respect of the recommendations arising from the review of Music held in February 2011. It was noted that the Panel Convener considered that appropriate consideration had been given to the recommendations and that in some areas actions were proposed but had not yet been implemented.
ASC agreed that in light of the Convener's comments on recommendations 4, 5 and 8 as detailed below, a follow-up report was required on these three recommendations, and this should be submitted to ASC in November 2012.
The responses to Recommendations 4 and 8 appear to be sufficient, however the response to Recommendation 5 still does not clarify overall responsibility for the Concert Hall, although it suggests it being the Head of School which would be supported by the Head of College. The Convener of the Review Panel notes that it is unlikely that significant updates to the infrastructure will be made unless there is a senior "champion" in the School/College making clear to E&B exactly what is required and how this fits into the overall priorities of the College.
