Are you present We want our students to make the most of their time here at the University of Huddersfield.  Regular attendance is so important to ensuring that they learn more, experience more and achieve more.

To make sure that they are aware of the importance of regular attendance we’re campaigning all week from Monday 3 to Friday 7 November with our ‘Are You Present?’ campaign.  Are You Present is a joint initiative with the Students’ Union.

Everything you need to know is on our campaign website: http://www.areyoupresent.co.uk/ You will find our campaign video, case studies from other students, frequently asked questions and links to our Student Services and Students' Union Advice Centre.

We're here to help

The University and Students' Union are working together to support our students.  If they are struggling with any issues, personal or academic, that might be affecting their studies, our Back on Track team can help. Our advisors will explore underlying issues with the student and help them to take steps to resolve them. They can put the student in touch with other services within the University including Disability Services, Welfare Support, Counselling and Student Finance. iPoint located in Student Central can help to direct them to the appropriate support and the Students’ Union Advice Centre is here to support them. 

Please encourage your students to visit the campaign website and help us to spread the word about the importance of regular attendance.  Our campaign hashtag is #areyoupresent for those of you who use social media.
