  • Support students with cost of study in UCL (bursary uplifts; no ‘hidden course costs’) and nationally
  • Campaign for ethical & sustainable university investments and partnerships
  • Wider opportunities to develop new, technical skills through term 3 learning, aiding employability
  • Continued advocacy for better study space

As your Education Officer I’ve:

  • Integrated sample lectures in module handbook (helping you this April)

  • Secured student representation on ethical Investment Policy research groups
  • fought for extra T3 study space

...to name a few! 

I’ve been a TAtutor, & summer workshop leader for refugee children. At UCL: a MentorImpartial Chair, & Academic Repadvocating for students from the start!:)

Please summarise why students should vote for you.

Hi, I’m Sarah, & I’m rerunning to be your Education Officer!

There are gaps in UCL’s education system - in feedback, financial support & more - and they pose huge challenges to any student who may stumble or fall through. I want to fix these gaps.

In my year as EO, I’ve advocated with students, reps, & campaigners, challenging senior stakeholders to make student voices heard and acted on.

If re-elected, I’ll hit the ground running on pressing student issues, pushing to ensure UCL students get an education that is worthwhile, accessible, and truly supports them - especially when they need it most.
