Q4. CVs, applications, and “selling yourself” can feel especially hard at this point. What’s helped you tell your story honestly, without feeling you have to apologise, explain, or fake optimism?

Q1. Redundancy doesn’t always arrive suddenly. For some it’s imposed, for others it’s voluntary severance made under pressure or uncertainty. Where are you currently, or where have you been, on that journey?

Join us on Bluesky for #LTHEchat with guests @puiyin.bsky.social, @katharinehubbard.bsky.social, Dr Kevin Campbell-Karn, Professor David Webster and Paula Han on Wednesday 7th January at 8pm GMT to discuss Navigating the New OfS Quality Era: What It Means for Students, Staff and the Sector.
LTHEchat 348: Navigating the New OfS Quality Era and What It Means for Students, Staff, and the Sector
The Office for Students’ (OfS) latest proposal represents a significant shift in how teaching quality and student outcomes will be assessed. The message is clear: every higher education provider will be pulled into a single, integrated quality-assessment system that blends the Teaching Excellence Framework (TEF) with core regulatory conditions. For the sector, it’s a moment of scrutiny, but also a chance to rethink how we support students.
