Our priorities for race equity

Five students on Peel Park Campus

As part of the development of our Race Equity Action Plan, within our Race Equality Charter (REC) work, students and staff shared feedback on their experience via our REC Survey within the 2023/24 academic year. We’ve used this feedback to create six REC priorities, which we will focus on over the next five years to advance race equity at the University of Salford.

Our six priorities

  1. Deliver year-on-year improvements to the student and colleague experience of inclusive culture at the University of Salford
     
  2. To increase the proportion of minoritised ethnic colleagues across all areas and grades, through enhancements to our recruitment process
     
  3. To increase the proportion of minoritised ethnic colleagues across all areas and grades, through supporting career progression of existing colleagues
     
  4. To narrow the gap between minoritised ethnic students and white students in relation to the proportion of 2:1’s and first-class degrees awarded
     
  5. To increase representation and progression of black students, through improving offer rates
     
  6. To enhance the experiences of international students, through providing specific and culturally appropriate support
