The National Union of Students (NUS) Education and Welfare departments have launched our National Survey into Student Placements. Fill out the survey here: https://forms.gle/AQh1cLZx1FBAvZZt9

This survey aims to gain a deeper understanding of how students who have to do external placements are carrying out their education. We know that students are struggling to manage work, study and placements, with countrywide discrepancies in the approach, we want to use this data to inform a formal inquiry into student placement requirements and get a national standard that means your education is accessible and equitable.
