Jonathon Barnes

Quality Assurance Officer


I support the assurance and enhancement of academic quality and standards for the Division's undergraduate and graduate programmes. This mainly consists of providing guidance to academic and administrative colleagues in departments on a range of quality assurance, enhancement, and education/assessment policy matters. I have lead administrative responsibility for the annual review by the Division of Examination Conventions, changes to their Examination Regulations, and the introduction of new options. I also analyse all examiners' reports for undergraduate and postgraduate taught programme, and report on monitoring activities (including student surveys). I am the Secretary for the Divisional Quality Assurance Committee, and Undergraduate Studies Committee. I also facilitate the Division's two Student Representative Boards and coordinate the Division's Excellence Awards and Teaching Development and Enhancement Project Awards.

Outside of the division I sit on QAA's External Examining Review Advisory Group.
