The Outcome Agreement sets indicative ambitions for the University for 2017/18 to 2019/20. It reflects on the activities of the University which are funded by the Scottish Funding Council (SFC). Section 3 sets out the five key priorities for the next three years identified in the SFC Outcome Agreement Guidelines. Key Priorities: Widening Access High quality learning and teaching World-leading research Greater innovation in the economy High-performing institutions Who will be affected by this policy? Students and staff across the institution, belonging to all of the protected characteristics, will be affected by this policy as well as stakeholders in the wider community, e.g. partner schools and Forth Valley College. Is the policy being developed or reviewed? The policy is being developed. What is the timescale for approval of the policy? The proposals are for implementation in 2017/18 Who/what committee is responsible for approving any necessary changes to this policy? The policy was endorsed by the University Strategy & Policy Group on xxx and will be considered for final approval by University Court on 27 March 2017. The University Strategy & Policy Group (USPG) will be responsible for approving any necessary changes STEP 2: HOW DOES (OR WILL) THIS POLICY OR DECISION AFFECT DIFFERENT GROUPS OF PEOPLE? The purpose of this step is to identify whether the policy/proposal could affect some groups of people differently. Will the policy discriminate against or disadvantage people on the grounds of any of the protected characteristics, or are there any opportunities to better promote equality or good relations between different groups of people through modifying the policy? Note: Under the Equality Act 2010, the nine protected characteristics are age, disability, gender reassignment, marital or civil partnership status, pregnancy or maternity, race, religion or belief, sex and sexual orientation. When answering the questions below, you should think about how they relate to each of the 9 protected characteristics. 1. Does the evidence suggest that people with any of the protected characteristics have (or are likely to have) different needs or experiences in relation to this policy? [Include data where appropriate e.g. uptake of services or provision] This policy sets out its ambitions to meet the five key areas for the HE sector identified in the SFC Outcome Agreement Guidelines, .i.e. Widening Access; High quality learning and teaching; World-leading research; Greater innovation in the economy; High performing institutions. This policy is not likely to discriminate against any particular group. It is intended to deliver an accessible and diverse student experience and attract and provide more equal opportunities for people of all ages and backgrounds. Current and planned activities are intended to have a positive impact on staff and students, regardless of their protected characteristic. The University currently exceeds the Commission on Widening Access 2021 target for MD20 students. As noted in the Outcome Agreement, recent student surveys provide evidence of high levels of student satisfaction at UG, TPG and RPG level.  2. Does the evidence suggest that any aspect of the policy could lead to unfair treatment (including unlawful discrimination) against people with a particular protected characteristic? (For example, are people from any particular group excluded from accessing provision, either directly or indirectly as a result of the criteria applied?) There is no evidence to suggest that any aspect of the policy could lead to unfair treatment against people with protected characteristics. One of the Universitys key priorities is to provide learning that is accessible to all ages and from all communities and backgrounds. This will be achieved through a contextualised approach to admissions, including individualised one-to-one support to carers and care-experienced persons, together with a commitment to strategic partnerships with schools and Forth Valley College. It is worth noting that the currently exceeds the Commission on Widening Access 2021 target for MD20 and MD40 students. The policy notes that from 2017 the Universitys Equality outcomes include commitment to action on gender equality across a range of activities in order to reduce the gender imbalance in applications for subject areas where the applicant base is gender imbalanced. Through the Equality Outcomes, retention, progression and success will also be monitored to ensure retention and attainment levels are comparable across students with protected characteristics.  3. Will this policy help the University to meet the three parts of the general equality duty? Please expand on your reasoning in relation to each part: (i) Eliminate discrimination, harassment, victimisation or any other prohibited conduct Yes. Through its commitment to widening access and participation, the University aims to eliminate discrimination, thus helping the University to meet this equality duty. Through its new Equality Outcomes, one of which relates to Interculturalism and Respect, the University is committed to developing and maintaining a culture of respect and providing appropriate support to ensure that unlawful discrimination and harassment of staff or students is not tolerated.  (ii) Advance equality of opportunity between those who share a protected characteristic and those who do not share it Yes. The Policy outlines several initiatives that the has invested in to ensure students are provided with high quality teaching which is accessible and diverse, e.g. the Making the Most of Masters enables postgraduate students to undertake a work-based project in lieu of a traditional dissertation and the Universitys commitment to grow the number of placement opportunities, particularly for those students who have experienced barriers in accessing postgraduate study. The Universitys mentoring programme and Athena SWAN Action Plan commits the University to increasing support for early and mid-career staff, with particular emphasis to supporting female academics. The University champions the role of women leaders in higher education through activities such as Aurora and Stepping Stones initiatives. Through its Equality Outcomes, the University is committed to improving the health and wellbeing of staff and students.  (iii) Foster good relations between those who share a protected characteristic and those who do not share it Yes. The Universitys revised contextualised approach to admissions, including individualised one-to-one support to carers and care-experienced persons, together with a commitment to strategic partnerships with schools and Forth Valley College will ensure good relations between those who share a protected characteristic and those who do not share it. One of the Outcome Agreements key priorities is to further develop partnerships with schools and Forth Valley College in order to smooth the student learner journey.  4. Summarise what evidence you have considered when answering these questions. (e.g. anecdotal evidence, management information, research reports, consultations with staff, students and/or campus Unions) Development of the Outcome Agreement was informed by: The Universitys Strategic Plan 2016-21 Three consultation events with the Students Union Consultation with the UCU Dean for Equality and Diversity Consultation events with academic and professional services staff from across services faculties and students Consultation with Equality and Diversity practitioners Throughout the consultation, no evidence emerged of potential equality issues or differential impact. Gender balance in student intake, mental health and wellbeing, retention and continuation rates and intercultural awareness and respect were identified as the revised Equality Outcomes for 2017-21. These, along with the priorities set out in the 2017-2020 Outcome Agreement aim to help mitigate these issues.  STEP 3: ACTION PLAN You should now be able to identify whether any action is required to eliminate discrimination or disadvantage, or to make changes to more effectively promote equality, diversity or good relations. Alternatively, you might have identified that you cannot fully assess the impact of the policy on different groups until you have more information. Actions that you might identify at this stage could include: Changes to the policy itself to better promote equality or to tackle unfair treatment/discrimination Collecting and analysing data not currently available e.g. management information, surveys Consulting further with staff, students or Unions in order to find out more about how the policy or decision will affect people Action/change requiredResponsibilityTimescaleResources requiredWhat issue/problem will this action address?None STEP 4: Recommend whether the University should adopt, modify, pilot or reject the policy/function A: Adopt the policy in its originally proposed format (no changes required) - YES B: Modify the policy to address any negative impact or to more effectively promote equality, diversity and good relations C: Continue the policy without modifications, despite identifying equality issues (note: justification must be provided) D: Reject the policy entirely, due to the findings of the EIA E: Pilot the policy and re-evaluate the equality impact after the pilot period F: Modify the policy to meet separate statutory changes, not linked to equality/diversity  STEP 5: MONITORING AND REVIEW What equality data will be collected to monitor the implementation of this policy? The Universitys ambitions set out in the Outcome Agreement will be reviewed on an annual basis. 2. Who will be responsible for collecting, analysing and reporting on this data? Policy and Planning To whom and how often will this data be reported? Any issues will be reported to the University Strategy & Policy Group (USPG) When will this policy next be reviewed?
