E N D
Data Outline • Equality Challenge Unit Publications: • Equality in Higher Education Statistical Report 2011 Part 1: Staff • Equality in Higher Education Statistical Report 2011 Part 2: Students • 279 data tables relating to staff and students covering • Gender • Ethnicity • Disability • Age • Multiple Identities
Heriot-Watt Data • Mirrors the ECU Statistical Reports Part 1: Staff and Part 2: Students • Is retrieved from the Higher Education Statistical Agency returns for staff and students • Provides helpful baseline information for benchmarking and developing Equality Outcomes • Does not cover all Protected Characteristics • Not ALL 279 data tables used (some are replicas tables) • All HWU data is for Academic Year 2010/11
Heriot-Watt Data • The presentation outlines what the data tells us • The data raises questions rather than providing answers • There is a need for ‘diagnosis’ and further discussion around the context behind some of the data • Equal pay data is available but not included
Data Summary • The Data shows is that in many respect HWU is very like the national HEI • Some of the data refers to small numbers BUT that doesn’t mean its insignificant • Some of the trend data (specifically students) tell us that if we want to change…we need to do something different!
Headline issues… There is a strong case for prioritising gender related issues across academia with a STEM focus • Less females in research related roles • Less females enrolling in SET focused subjects • Static student intake data over time Should we do more to support UK- Domiciled BME students to reach their full potential • BME students less likely to achieve 1st and 2:1 than the national picture - BUT small numbers within the data How do we address the support needs of Disabled Staff and Students within a shrinking funding environment? • Significant growth in numbers not qualifying for DSA and likely increase in support needs • Very low staff disclosure means some staff are without adequate support We show that the age profile of our staff is similar to the National picture but we’re different when it comes to our students • What opportunities does our age range provide HWU for growth of student intake? Does this link to the WP agenda?
Gender: Staff • Heriot-Watt has a lower % of females overall in the staff population than both the UK and Scottish totals • The following tables examine this more closely
Gender: HWU StaffTop 3 Occupational Staff Distribution by gender • The table shows the most populated roles for males and females at HWU • Occupational segregation demonstrated by: • The significantly lower %of females within academic professional category • high % of females in cleaner/catering roles
