Inclusive learning
CATE recognises and rewards collaborative work that has had a demonstrable impact on teaching and learning and highlights the key role of teamwork in higher education.
The team lead and support projects and initiatives focused on the development of inclusive learning and teaching practice in higher education, offering guidance and support to the academic community.
By exemplifying the power of collaboration between staff, students and the students’ unions, the Inclusive-learning@York team has led the development of a student partnerships framework for the University, which adds value and commitment to our joint, community experience.
Collaboration
University of York Vice-Chancellor Professor Charlie Jeffery, said: "This award highlights the team’s commitment to our principles of inclusivity and collaboration and their contribution to the University's strategy to provide an education that empowers.
“This has been a true collaboration between students, academic departments and professional services teams and we offer our congratulations to all of those involved.”
The team will be invited to attend a celebratory event in Autumn 2023, where their Collaborative Award for Teaching Excellence will be awarded.
