Status
Elected
What do you hope to achieve in the role if you are elected?
Ensure minimised impact on student education during strike actions and lobby for financial and academic compensation.
Work alongside stakeholders in revising the structure of the academic teaching year; focusing on concerns about over assessment and high-stake end of year exam period.
Introduce free short courses for students/grads and collaborate with top-tier institutes and organisations worldwide for exchange programmes, fostering student growth in dynamic environments to boost employability.
Advocate for decolonising the curriculum whilst closing the BME attainment gap of 13%.
What will you bring to this role (e.g. experience, skills or qualities)?
Working at multiple scales of policy making from local governance at Camden Council to UNDP Programs has made me appreciative of the imperative consideration of the needs of the policy stakeholders. Securing 60+ IVY and Oxbridge admissions through my mentorship establishment has allowed me to analyse various educational systems which will help me map out efficacious frameworks with UCL. Campaigning for increased SU fundings and scholarships for students as SU’ Trustee has given me a better understanding of the intricacies of the system allowing me to effectively represent students interests.
Please summarise why students should vote for you.
Noticing the gap in transitional support into tertiary education, I established a mentorship programme which served as an advent for my growing passion for education and goal of enacting sustainable improvisations into our already well-established structure. Serving the SU in different capacities has strengthened my trust in the values and beliefs of the union, alongside equipping me with the essential prerequisites to lead as education officer. I look forward to strongly advocating for student voices and implementing change at UCL
