Connie Barker
I’m Connie, a Law Department Officer. I collect student feedback from different courses and reps, working with academic staff and the Guild to drive change that benefits everyone in your department.
Law School
You Said
You told us you wanted more support with key legal skills like referencing, academic writing and critical reading - the building blocks of your course. You also shared that you’d love to see more social opportunities in the Law School to build better relationships with staff and other students.
We Did
Connie shared feedback with Module Coordinators who discussed these ideas directly with teaching staff.
Here's What's Changing
Staff have been encouraged to offer more structured academic support, including revision materials and workshops tailored to the skills you’ve asked for. They’re also exploring ways to boost staff-student engagement, so your learning community feels more connected and supportive.
What This Means For You
You’ll get better access to the tools and support that help you build confidence and succeed academically, with more chances to connect with your lecturers and peers along the way. This is about more than just skills. It’s about helping you feel part of something, and making the Law School a place where everyone can thrive.
What's Next
Department Officers will continue working with module teams to turn your feedback into lasting improvements - from academic support to course community, and everything in between.
Your voice shapes Exeter
Keep speaking — we’re here to listen and act.
Every win shared here began with feedback from students like you — and every change reflects the impact you’ve made on campus, your course, and your community.
Working In Partnership
Thanks To You X Love Exeter
We’re working side-by-side with the University to make sure your voice leads to action. Together, we’ve already improved things that matter to you, and we’re not stopping here. There’s more to do, we’ll keep lobbying the University to make sure they keep listening.
