These significant areas are teaching, learning opportunities, assessment and feedback, and academic support. The conservatoire is ranked second amongst the higher education institutions within Leeds for these same key themes, thus highlighting the quality of its education within the city.
Professor Joe Wilson, Principal at Leeds Conservatoire, said, “I am very pleased with these results, especially given the turbulent times that higher education faces. As with every round of the NSS there are key messages to celebrate as well as areas that we will want to support further. I am extremely grateful to the staff and students of the conservatoire for their continued support.”
The NSS is managed by the Office for Students (OfS) and gathers students’ opinions on the quality of their courses. This helps to inform prospective students’ choices, provide data that supports higher and further education institutions to improve the student experience, and support public accountability.
The survey is one of the largest of its kind in the world with just under 346,000 responses across the UK this year.
