Student Reps are chosen in elections or by asking you to express an interest in the role, this should happen at the start of your new academic year. Student Reps repesent everyone on your year of study, so ideally your classmates will vote in who they wish to be their Student Reps for the year ahead. Ideally, there would be 1 x Student Rep for every 25 students on your year of study for your course. There could very well be multiple Student Reps needed!
Ask your Programme Leader if you have not yet discussed who will be your Student Rep to represent your cohort.
Reps are elected on a 12-month basis at the start of your academic year, be that in September, January or March.
For academic year 2024/2025, you need to fill in this form: https://forms.office.com/e/QrA7AQBgvh
