Notice Title

GB-Bristol: Office for Students - Evaluation of Student Space Phase 3

Notice Description

The Student Space online platform , developed by Student Minds, and funded by OfS and HEFCW was launched in August 2020. It was designed as a targeted intervention to address the additional mental health support needs of higher education students in England and Wales caused by the COVID-19 pandemic by securing a fixed-term, coherent, effective and rapidly deployed offer available to all students. It was aimed at addressing the new or exacerbated challenges experienced by some students in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, to fill gaps in support or provision which were also impacted by reduced availability of normal university, college or NHS support services. The OfS requires the successful Supplier to deliver the evaluation of the final phase of the Student Space programme (phase 3).
