What impact would you like to have as a Sabbatical Officer?

There are a number of things I hope to achieve during my tenure:

  • I want to incorporate a period of extended learning in lieu of a static term 3; introducing short courses & internships to boost growth and employability.
  • I want to tackle concerns about single, cliff-edge exams and over-assessment, as well as improve feedback.
  • I want to increase the number of multifaceted study spaces to cater to the needs of growing student numbers.
  • I want to introduce a credit-bearing skills module for reps, society leaders and officers.

Your advice to students?

The networking opportunities at UCL are incredible and will gear your route to success, so don’t be afraid to step out of your comfort zone, build connections and make the most out of your time here.

Sabbatical Officer Reports

Voting Record

As democratic leaders, all Sabbatical Officers must maintain transparency in their work. Below is a record of the voting on policies introduced during the academic year 2024-2025 and how Shaban has voted. Please note that Sabbatical Officers do not participate in all Zones and, therefore, do not vote on every policy.
