Students in England will no longer be asked how satisfied they were with their course, the regulator has confirmed as part of its proposed changes to the nation’s biggest higher education survey.
The Office for Students has outlined how it thinks the influential National Student Survey should operate from 2023 to ensure that it “remains fit for purpose”.
Ideas put out for consultation include adding questions on freedom of expression and mental well-being, as well as moves to “ask more direct questions generally” and a shortening of the window in which the annual census of final-year undergraduate students is run.
