Strategic Framework

HE Achievement Report
By academic year 2010/11, following a period of
detailed development, a Higher Education
Achievement Report (HEAR) will be the central
vehicle for recording all university-level
undergraduate higher education student
achievement in all UK higher education
institutions.
HE Achievement Report
The HEAR will be a single document, based on, and
developed from, the current academic transcript, and
incorporating the European Diploma Supplement. It
will contain a wider range of information than the
current academic transcript and will capture more
fully than now the strengths and weaknesses of the
student’s performance. It will also contain
information about academic credit, which will link
directly to the national credit framework for the part
of the UK in which the award is made. Core content
will be common to all institutions, which will be free
to add additional information as they see fit.
HE Achievement Report
The HEAR will contain information which the
institution is prepared to verify. Further work
should be done on how to measure and record
skills and achievements gained through nonformal learning but this, along with other
student-generated/driven information, should be
part of Personal Development Planning (PDP).

PDP and L, T & A
• Identify examples of PDP activities (either
current or planned) that map onto one or
more of the five key principles in the
Learning, Teaching and Assessment Strategic
Framework.
• How possible would it be to integrate learning
outside the curriculum with the PDP process at
Gloucestershire?
Learner Empowerment

* Induction week (PBL, working together)
(Assessed via xx160)
* Responsibility for own learning throughout
three years (Social Work), and then into CPD
* Enabling students to understand that this is a
process
Active Engagement
* Learning inventories, followed by reflection
Learning Communities

other (e.g. through induction week)
* Digital storytelling
* Students finding out about other courses on
campus (part of a learning community)
* Allowing students to take risks
Sustainable Development
Equality & Diversity
* Induction week (involving disabled service
workers)
Integrate Outside Learning
