1. Student Staff Consultative Committee:

The Staff-Student Consultative Committee (SSCC) within the School of Economics and Finance exists to consider matters regarding the academic welfare of students and to liaise with the Faculty to provide a critique of the courses and opportunities available to the student body.

Members of the SSCC include Class Representatives, the Director of Teaching, and academic staff.

In the School of Economics and Finance, the SSCC is split into a postgraduate SSCC and an undergraduate SCCC. These Committees meet twice per semester.

A list of previous minutes and documents can be found below:

2. Class Representatives and Class Rep Forums:

Class representatives are students that represent fellow students in matters of academia and school related issues. These issues are communicated either through the SSCCs, directly to the lecture or the Director of Teaching, or through the School President.

Class Representatives are expected to attend all Class Rep Forums and SSCCs. Class Rep Forums will normally take place twice a semester prior to SSCCs. Class reps will be able to raise any issues they feel appropriate at this forum, and anything discussed should remain confidential. Unresolved issues will be raised at the SSCC for further discussion.

Furthermore, certain responsibilities will be delegated to the class reps at the first class rep forum of the year. A complete list of all class reps and office holders, and their contact details, can be found below.

Further information about class representatives can be found at: http://www.yourunion.net/studentvoice/content/14833/class_reps/

3. School President:

School Presidents are a brand new and shiny initiative from the Students' Association this year.
The role of the School President is to make representations on behalf of the students within their School to the University. The broad aim of the School president system is to improve communications and cooperation between students and staff, for the mutual benefit of both.

The School presidents will act as a link between the student sabbatical officers of the Students' Association and the class reps. The School president is, amongst others, responsible for organising and hosting SSCCs and Class Rep Forums, attend all President Forums, and regularly communicate issues to the DoT on behalf of students.

CONTACT: The school president can at all times be contacted on economicspresidentst-andrews.ac.uk . He/she will respond promptly.

4. Elections for student positions:

Elections for class rep positions and the position as school president are held at the beginning of each year, usually in mid-October. You will receive further notification via email from the Director of Teaching and/or the SSCC.
