The Inspirational Student Awards

Inspirational Student Awards – 2025 Update

The Inspirational Student Awards (ISAs) are a way to formally recognise and celebrate our amazing students who have made a real difference to their fellow students, staff, local community, employers and beyond.

For 2025, it has been agreed by the Deputy Vice-Chancellor, David Shepherd and the Executive Deans of College that the ISAs will not run in the established way this year given the significant change and pressures on colleagues.

However, recognising the achievements of our students remains very important to us and therefore the Executive Deans will shortly be consulting within the Colleges about alternative, less resource-intensive ways to celebrate student and staff success.

Please check back here for further updates on alternative plans in the New Year.
