About Me
Hi everyone!
My name is Matthew, and this year I will be serving as your Vice President Education. While I was still a student at Royal Holloway I studied Politics and International Relations, and I can't wait to work on getting your voice heard. While I was a student, I worked as a Duty Manager at the SU Shop and as a Student Ambassador for The Purpose Coalition, advocating for social mobility in the UK. This is something I want to bring to the role as VP Education to make sure our University provides opportunities for all regardless of background.
Our role at the Students' Union is to make student life better, and with that in mind if you have any ideas or changes you want to see make sure to get in touch with me at my socials linked on the right!
My priority 8
These are the priorities assigned to me, but I have personal objectives too relating to the Commuter Student Experience and Personal Tutor Support. At the SU we are aware Priority 8 are what students want to see us work on, but that it's not the only thing! Make sure to help us keep up to date with any issues affecting a student community - all your Officers and your Union are here to make student life better!
More than anything I want to hear from you this year, and I can't wait to meet and speak to as many of you as I can over this year - so once again get in touch!
The Role
Not only is the Vice President Education the Deputy President of the Students’ Union but they also sit on a number of high level committees including Academic Board where the academic strategy of the College is decided.
Alongside this, VP Education sits on the Union’s Board of Trustees. They work on campaigns aimed at improving the academic experience on campus and have a real impact on the academic rep system, empowering students to make change on their courses and within their departments.
