    Varsity Style Jackets for School reps

    Submitted 1 year ago by Inderjosh Heer
    Rejected
      3comments
      Students should feel proud to be a rep at BCU and is a great way for students to approach them should their be any concerns within their school. It would give School l reps a lot more belongingness to their role and school as well as a way of generating more feedback for their schools, empowering students to use their voice! We believe that Varsity style jackets would help do this and is a way to celebrate our roles at BCU. School reps would like a meeting with VP Voice to discuss how they could improve their visibility and vote on how they do this.

    3:28pm on 3 Mar 22 Students will be aware of their school reps when on campus and feel more able to approach them to suggest ideas or give feedback as it is a visual way of making it clear much like the student ambassador uniform for open days students know who is who

    How it works

    Submit

    Submit an idea... anything that could improve student experience is a valid idea.

     

    • You must be a BCU student, logged in using your student account
    • You can choose to submit anonymously, so your name won’t be displayed.
      BCUSU staff will still be able to see your name and email to contact you

     

    Discuss

    You will be contacted by one of the Activities and Representation Coordinators to discuss your idea and make any relevant changes to it.

    Vote

    Your idea then goes live, here on the Ideas Board for other students to vote and comment.

    It will be live until:

    • it reaches 25 positive votes
      or until the end of the academic year (whichever comes first)
    • Students can vote with a thumbs up (agree) or thumbs down (disagree)
    • Votes and comments will help the Executive Officer team make decisions

     

    Action

    If your idea reaches the 25-positive vote threshold:

     

    • it will be handed over to the Executive Officer team for review
    • they will discuss the idea and decide what action to take
    • the comments section will be updated with the agreed upon actions

    If an idea is raised to hold an Executive Officer to account, and it gains 25 positive votes, it will be reviewed at Scrutiny Group.
