Teaching Excellence Framework

Universities and colleges that take part in the TEF are assessed and rated for excellence above a set of minimum requirements for quality and standards. They receive an overall rating as well as two underpinning ratings – one for the student experience and one for student outcomes.

The TEF is a desk-based, expert review exercise. The TEF panel is made up of academics and students who are experts in learning and teaching.

By measuring these important criteria, the TEF:

• Encourages higher education providers to deliver excellent teaching and learning experiences
• Shines a spotlight on high-quality teaching and courses, helping institutions to enhance their academic reputation
• Supports students to identify which higher education provider is most suitable for them

Regent College London (RCL) is dedicated to maintaining the highest standards across our teaching, resources and student support. We strive to provide every student with a high-quality higher education experience and the confidence that their studies will lead to positive outcomes.

RCL students receive significant educational gain by acquiring deep disciplinary understanding, transferable skills, personal confidence and character, enabling them to navigate complex challenges and contribute positively to society.

We promote educational gain through:

• Enhancing continuation, completion and progression through cross-institute and targeted interventions
• Enhancing NSS performance across schools in partnership with students
• Delivering high quality flexible education across seven days and five campuses
• Embedding career and employment development in courses and personal tutoring
• Sector-leading academic staff development mapped against an inclusion framework
