Project Development Week is Coming!

Project Development Week is for students to focus their time to work on their own projects, rather than us providing additional learning opportunities for them so there won’t be any sessions scheduled.

“Project Development Week is an important part of semester 2. There is a break in teaching for one week to allow more time to focus on and make progress with coursework. It’s an ideal time to catch up on those group work meetings, as well as prepare drafts or work-in-progress to get some important formative feedback in preparation for upcoming assignment deadlines.”

Rob Magoolagan, Head of School for Music and Sound Production

Project development week is also a great time to look after your mental health and have a break, so if you are feeling the pressure of looming deadlines or just want to look after yourself a little, here are some great links for you

The Student Assistive Programme is a confidential programme designed to help you deal with personal or student-related problems. The problems could be affecting your home life, education, health, and general wellbeing. Health Assured have teamed up with Futureworks to provide this service.

Balancing everyday life with the requirements of studying and home life can create pressures for all of us. We are here to support you and alleviate everyday pressures or anxiety life can cause. It is vital to create a productive, healthy environment that is conducive to a healthy lifestyle, and we’re here to help.
