What is the Support for Students policy?
In 2023, the Australian Government committed to the Australian Universities Accord, which is a vision to reform Australia’s higher education system. This requires all higher education providers to enact a Support for Students Policy that ensures students at risk of failing their courses are identified, and students are properly supported to study successfully.
