Student Charter

The Empowering University

This charter has been created and is maintained jointly by 51Âþ»­ staff and students. It sets out commitments from the university to students, from students to the university, and from the Students’ Union to students.

Starting with a blank sheet of paper, a group of students and staff set out the type of things they thought that they and the university should commit to. From teaching and learning, to support and university life, these ideas were refined into a single document. 

That document was then updated and approved by the University Leadership Board, De Montfort Students' Union and the governing body, to create the 51Âþ»­ Student Charter.

The charter will be updated on a yearly basis, and is a guide to your responsibilities at 51Âþ»­, and will help explain what the university should do for you.

If you want to get involved with the development of the student charter, please email us for more information.
