Accelerating action on the Awarding Gap - Lunch & Learn

As part of Black History Month 2021 at LSBU, we are pleased to introduce Nathan Ghann, an inclusive education practitioner, Director of the Educate Group and associate consultant with Advance HE.

Nathan will be joining us to deliver a session on 'Accelerating action on the Awarding Gap' which will provide participants with a detailed understanding of the awarding gap, what the main factors are that contribute to it and provide research-informed case study examples, toolkits and strategies that have shown to reduce disparities in outcomes. This will be followed by an interactive discussion and Q&A.

Previously a Lecturer in business enterprise, Nathan went on to hold the position of Student Success Lead at the University of Hertfordshire and worked on the Office for Students funded project ‘Addressing barriers to Student Success: using a value-added metric and inclusive curriculum approach. Additionally, Nathan was the founding Chair of the UH BAME Staff Network and contributed to the Race Equality Charter mark self-assessment team. Recently, he published a chapter entitled 'Turning big data into informed action' in the book Doing Equity and Diversity for Success in Higher Education.

This event has been organised by Equinet, LSBU's Black, Asian, Minority Ethnic & Allies Network. We hope you'll join us to hear from Nathan as we explore the importance of this accelerating action & how we can all play a part.

This event will be delivered via Zoom. You will receive the joining instructions 2 days before the event takes place.
