About the Annual Course Review

The Annual Course Review (ACR) is a key part of the University’s quality assurance and enhancement framework. It provides an opportunity for review, reflection and evaluation of the delivery of a course (cluster of courses or a subject area) and the performance of students and allows the University to fulfil its responsibilities for maintaining the quality and standard of its awards.

The ACR is underpinned by the use of qualitative and quantitative evidence and is critical to identifying issues, risks and actions for improvement and enhancement.

The ACR comprises four stages:

Timescales

  • Schools to determine timescales for SEC consideration of ACR reports
  • Completed School Level Summary report to be submitted to Educational Enhancement by Monday 16 January 2023. Email s.connelly@sussex.ac.uk.
  • University Education Committee considers AMR overview report Wednesday 8 February 2023.

Full details of how to submit reports will be provided shortly.
