As in previous years, the Postgraduate Annual Monitoring Summaries for each College were submitted to the Senate Office two weeks in advance of the January meeting of ASC. The College summaries have been reviewed by the Senate Office in order to identify any common themes.

The main themes are presented in the attached paper along with some indicative examples of the comments made. The same has been done with good practice identified in the College Summaries.

Following its consideration of the College Annual Monitoring Summaries, ASC is asked to confirm that the themes identified below are an accurate reflection of the issues raised by the Colleges. The Senate Office will then seek updates and responses from the relevant sources to these University-wide matters.
