MMU Peer Support for Teaching Scheme

The Revised MMU Scheme:

In June 2010, the Academic Board approved a revised Policy and Scheme for the Peer Support of Teaching (PST), designed to contribute to the enhancement of the quality of teaching, learning and assessment and the student experience at MMU. The revised scheme builds upon the model approved in 2003 which led to the establishment of peer support schemes in a number of departments (or equivalent structures).

This scheme recognises existing good practice across the University, and broadens and enhances the range of activities that can be undertaken in order to facilitate engagement with the PST process across all Faculties and ensure the scheme is adaptable to local needs and contexts.

New material and links will be added as they become available. You are also invited to provide examples of good practice, case studies, proformas etc to add to MMU’s resources on PST (contact Dorothy Oakey d.oakey@mmu.ac.uk).
