Thank you to: Skye Smithurst
Student | Course Rep
A proud student told us...
"Skye has been an amazing course rep for Psychology and Child development, of our 3 course reps, Skye is the one who attends all the meetings, asks us for feedback and genuinely checks in on all of us to make sure we are all okay and coping. She is always available for a chat if we are struggling and always does her best to help us herself or point us to the best place where we can find help. If any of us aren’t comfortable asking questions, Skye is always the first to volunteer to ask for us, and she just puts everyone at ease and is someone everyone on the course feels comfortable talking to.
She has truly gone above and beyond for our course, advocating for us and ensuring any feedback we have is passed on to the relevant people. She made it her responsibility to get to know everyone on our course at a deeper level and made sure everyone knows we can come to her with any issues. Skye constantly goes above and beyond to make sure our voices are heard despite her own struggles and issues. I can’t think of anyone more deserving of this recognition.
Skye attends every rep meeting and always asks us for our feedback or suggestions beforehand so she can bring them up, she also checks in on us between meetings and keeps a note of all of our suggestions. If we have any queries or concerns, Skye always finds us the best source of help and then follows up with us a few days/weeks later. She really is committed to both the course and the people on it."
Thank you Skye for making a positive difference for students here at Staffs.
