Data, monitoring and reports
The Diverse Action Plan outlines the actions we are taking as an institution over a five-year period to support achievement of that vision and its underpinning objectives.
This includes a commitment to "make real progress in addressing the inequalities and disadvantages experienced by minoritised groups".
We are delivering this commitment by undertaking an ambitious programme of work. A key priority is the development of “enhanced data and analytic capability and building trust and transparency in data collection and usage, to provide timely and accessible equality, diversity and inclusion information to inform policy and practice interventions”.
Why EDI data matters
Collecting and monitoring equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) data helps us meet our legal responsibilities and better understand the experiences of our community. It allows us to identify bias and barriers, take action, and measure our progress towards a more inclusive environment.
Each report and action plan focuses on a specific area of equality, but together they contribute to a stronger, more inclusive culture where everyone can realise their potential.
Delivery of the University Strategy depends on the skills and commitment of our people. By publishing these reports, we aim to build trust and transparency in how EDI data is collected and used, deepen understanding of key EDI issues, and provide information to help inform policy and practice.
Equality mainstreaming reports
The Equality Mainstreaming Report outlines how the University is working to embed equality across its policies, practices and culture. It includes progress on equality outcomes, staff and student data, and the steps we are taking to create a more inclusive environment.
Gender pay gap reports
The gender pay gap shows the difference in average pay between women and men across the University. These reports help us understand where imbalances exist and how we can work to close the gap.

Ethnicity pay gap reports
The ethnicity pay gap shows the difference in average pay between ethnic minority and white staff across the University. This report helps us identify disparities and take steps towards greater racial equity and inclusion.
Report + Support reports
Report + Support is the University’s platform for disclosing concerns about unacceptable behaviour or wellbeing issues. These reports show how the platform is being used and highlight the steps we are taking to foster a safe, inclusive, and respectful environment for everyone.
