Call for
Student Representatives for Common Awards programmes 2025/26
Do you have the skills and passion to represent your
fellow students?
The St
Mellitus/Common Awards Management Committee is a committee with
responsibility for and oversight of student experience and the quality
and standards of programme delivery. The membership of the Board
includes students from St Mellitus across the centres who represent the
whole of the Common Awards student body. Student representatives are
able to contribute to the College’s decision-making, policy development
and the ongoing monitoring and development of programmes at a local
level. Some of these contributions may then be forwarded to the Common
Awards Management Board which has student representation at a national
level.
St Mellitus College is facilitating an election for you to elect
student representatives to represent you at Management Committee in the
next academic year.
Your voice is important

representatives?
~ Would you like to have a say in the ongoing monitoring
and development of the Common Awards programmes on a local level?

contribute to St Mellitus College’s decision-making and policy
development?
