The Writing Centre is a dynamic skills-based unit, created to provide a walk -in, one-on-one consultancy service for students from all faculties, and all academic levels of the university. Based on these individual consultations, the Writing Centre identifies and analyses the language and learning difficulties in student writing, and provides feedback to departmental staff. The Writing Centre is a project within the Language Development Group (LDG) which focuses on research-driven developmental work, particularly through curriculum involvement. The Writing Centre and the LDG contribute to the Centre for Higher Education Development’s goals of:

​

• research-led development;

• widening access;

• promoting excellence through equity;

• ensuring the provision of key abilities in graduates;

• developing the curriculum in partnership with faculties.
