Dear All,<br>
<br>
Please encourage graduating students to complete the NSS survey.<br>
If you can answer their questions about it or head them to Nigel or
myself.<br>
Please encourage them to be positive and not to use the "neutral"
response which is counted as a negative.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Please find attached the latest NSS
response rate reports at course, ‘department’ and subject
(JACS level 3) level. At institution level, our response rate
is currently at 19.21%, 3.34 points lower than at the same
time last year and 8 points lower than the average for
institutions with the same start date as us.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Ipsos MORI have been in touch to express
concerns about the lower response rate this year. Please
continue to encourage final year students in your area to
complete the survey and let us know if there’s anything we can
do to help. Additional promotional materials will be on their
way out to you soon. <o:p></o:p></p>
