Referencing the frameworks of external bodies such as the Office for Students (OFS) and the Quality Assurance Agency (QAA), we undertake a broad range of activities to meet both external requirements, such as supporting quality assurance reviews, and activities designed to meet King’s needs, for example, programme reviews and programme approval processes.
