Annual reports

Each year we publish a report summarising our activities relating to diversity over the last academic year and giving data concerning staff and students. The report also includes progress on our objectives.

University of Staffordshire has monitored a range of equality characteristics for both staff and students for many years. This data has been used to monitor our performance against equality targets, to highlight any areas where we need to improve, and inform objectives. Our monitoring is in line with HESA requirements.
