Being a student at ArtsEd
n. No student is to dictate to any member of staff, their preference of working partner(s). Students will work with their assigned partner(s) or group – unless stated otherwise by their tutor, course leader, visiting lecturer, director or head of year. o. When working, if you have an idea that may cause someone to feel uncomfortable or you want to explore physical contact or action – talk to them about it beforehand, in order to seek permission and consent. p. When working, as well as beyond the working space(s) do not engage in any sudden verbal or physical action towards others, that may cause alarm and distress. q. Application of work and stamina – all students must ensure full engagement and participation within all sessions. r. All students must demonstrate consistency of professional behaviour, participation and engagement, within all sessions s. All students must fully engage in the witnessing of work of others, by means of full engagement, focus and attention. t. No food or drink (except water) are to be consumed within rehearsal or performance spaces. u.

As this can often cause contention and resentment and becomes a barrier to effective learning, communication, collaboration and creativity. v. Deadline expectations – all set work must be handed in on the agreed deadline unless specifically stated otherwise by the tutor. w. Self-awareness, professional etiquette, and behaviour (inside & outside working spaces) – monitor noise levels and be aware; though your class may have finished, other classes are still going on. x. Audio Recordings can only be taken with the consent of those present. If those present consent to the audio taking place, the student cannot share any part of the audio with any third party without explicit consent of all parties. If there is an independent member of staff taking minutes (within a meeting) that is sufficient, as the student is able to have a copy and raise any concerns, should there be any. y. Ownership of learning – you must be motivated, engaged and positively selfdirect in your learning, with the guidance, direction and support of tutors and all staff members. Disciplinary procedures are as stated in the student handbook; this includes, but is not limited to, verbal warnings, written warnings and barrings.
