On the 1st December 21016 UPSU was presented with a petition signed by students calling for a referendum. This preceded a ballot which asked students to vote if they thought UPSU should boycott the National Student Survey (NSS). The ballot, which was open between 12th-16th December needed a quorum of 864 votes to be binding.
At the close of voting the results were:
Total votes cast 141
- Votes For 76
- Votes Against 58
- Abstentions 7
Although the vote was not quorate, the Executive Officer team all wish to continue to actively campaign against HE reforms and the Teaching Excellence Framework (TEF) moving forwards.
UPSU would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who took part in the Referendum
