Academic Policies
We work within a set of regulations, policies and guidelines that determine how we operate. Within this repository, you can find a variety of resources for ThinkSpace Education, our partner institution The Arts University Bournemouth and external organisations. These ensure we follow best practice and meet our rigorous academic requirements in a range of key areas.
If you are unable to find the information you need online you can request information from us by email or support ticket. If you have any further questions, please contact one of the team.
The Board will be considering the following policies: 'Equality Diversity and Inclusion', 'Value for Money Statement', and our 'Mission and Values statement' in December 2023, and, when they are approved, they will be available on this page.
