Principle Six focuses on accountability and dissemination for ongoing improvement. It provides an opportunity for us to ask how we know if what we’re doing is working, what impact our inclusive practice is having on student experience and outcomes, and in relation to this, whether students agree with us that our practice is inclusive.

It also provides an opportunity to identify what works and what does not work. Evaluation is key to informing curriculum review and development and a range of existing sources of information can be used to inform it, from student surveys, to information on student recruitment (why were students attracted to the course), to course experience and outcomes.

The EDIT project is the result of collaboration between Technological Universities and it is intended that this collaboration continues through the sharing of practice that arises from the evaluation of work undertaken in connection to the EDIT Charter. Learning from others about what worked, as well as what did not work, and sharing information about the considerations of inclusive curriculum content and delivery methods will help the sector to progress in embedding EDI within the teaching and learning landscape of the sector.

The Principle Six considerations are shown in the table below and are discussed and exemplified in the following sections.
