Journey to the Leading Edge Curriculum

This year’s conference focused on learning together, sharing effective practice, and exploring our journey toward the Leading Edge Curriculum.

We reaffirmed our commitment to a new framework that reflects our values, is inclusive by design, supports innovation, meets employer expectations, and harmonises structures across the University.

The conference gave colleagues and students a chance to showcase ideas and projects aligned with the Leading Edge Curriculum, and to share progress with the wider education community.
