Honestly I would be less worried about the accredidation and more worried that the biosci council seem to want to get rid of the vet school anyway and use it for something that might actually be profitable. Has there been any updates on that front?
Absolutely- it’s been such a middle finger from the SBS after all of the work that was put into regaining accreditation, and their conduct towards the staff, students and applicants has been poor!

We believe that a decision is going to be made this month and we’ll have an update then but the work to fight it is going very well. We’ve got a website going on with all of the news articles, letters from various associations and thousands of statements in support. There was also a regent house discussion (basically a chance to speak to the heads of the university) and it was clear that there was a lot of opposition from the wider university. I honestly don’t know what the outcome will be, but I do feel very reassured by the reaction.

In the meantime… please do leave a statement at https://savethevetschool.co.uk as the SBS should not have treated you lot in this manner at all. You can find all of the statements and work that has been done, including context from the department of veterinary medicine, and will give you the most up to date info on what’s been happening!
