The Student Leadership Team Roles
How can you help
We work to ensure that the election process is fairly and properly conducted.
Therefore, as staff members we can:
- Promote the election
- Encourage students to vote
- Display the linked slide in your classes during the voting period (12:00 Monday 15th June - 12:00 Friday 19th June (UK time))
We cannot:

- Give individual candidates support or advantages that we wouldnt reasonably provide to other candidates

What Is the Election and Why Do We Do It?
The Student Leadership Elections are a chance for students to decide on who their student leaders will be. These students will represent, advocate and campaign for your academic interests and needs to ensure the student journey is truly impactful. Our Student Leadership Elections are also a chance for students to step into leadership and nominate themselves for a role that they are passionate about.
