Launch of sparqs’ new SEAP Guidance

We are delighted to announce the publication of our SEAP Guidance for students’ associations and student officers, designed to support meaningful student engagement throughout the SEAP (Self-Evaluation and Action Plan) process.  

The guidance includes an overview of the SEAP process; some suggestions of how students can be involved in the development of the SEAP; and suggested actions for students’ associations.

The guidance is particularly relevant to students’ association representatives and staff, but is also a useful resource for all institutional staff involved in the SEAP process.

The SEAP is a document which enables institutions to reflect annually on institutional quality assurance and enhancement activities and outcomes, and to identify key strategic areas for enhancement. Definitive guidance on the SEAP process can be found in the Scottish Funding Council’s Guidance on Quality

There are opportunities for student engagement and partnership throughout the development of the SEAP itself, as well as through the activities upon which the SEAP reports. If you require more support on student engagement in the SEAP, you can contact sparqs for further information and advice.

The SEAP is part of Scotland’s new Tertiary Quality Enhancement Framework (TQEF). For further information on TQEF, please see our Quality Arrangements webpage and the SFC’s TQEF webpage.

If you have any queries, please get in touch with Megan Brown, Senior Development Consultant – megan.brown@sparqs.ac.uk.
