So the plan is to attend Fresher's Week (sorry, "Welcome and Induction Week"!), and then skip the first teaching week?

What induction activities have you completed so far? Have you yet agreed to abide by Leeds Beckett's Student Contract? I ask as that includes the following:

"44 Taught Students are expected to attend all timetabled teaching sessions on their course, attend all scheduled assessments and undertake independent learning in support of their studies, as guided and advised by their tutors. You may be required to provide evidence of the reasons for your absence, and, on returning to the University, of your fitness to do so."

Note, in particular, the fact that you "may be required to provide evidence of the reasons for your absence". I don't know how seriously Leeds Beckett take this. I'm merely pointing-out the rule and your commitment to it.
