Get the right ratio

October 20, 2006

"Workloads go through roof" (October 6) painted an inaccurate picture of the student-to-staff ratio at University of the Arts London. The figures used were based on Higher Education Statistics Agency returns for 2003-04, which do not include part-time hourly paid associate lecturers. Our estimate of the ratio if all such staff had been included is 18.8:1.

One of the strengths of University of the Arts is the use of associate lecturers, who are all leading practitioners in their chosen field.
