Academic Success Centre

What is the Academic Student Success Centre?

The Academic Success Centre (ASC) is a judgement-free space and opportunity for our HE students to receive help, advice and guidance on academic writing and study strategies, regardless of the level or subject you're studying. 

No question is too small or too daft, so we encourage anyone in need of support to come along so we can work together and find you success in your academic studies.

We look forward to seeing you soon!

Academic Succes

We can provide you guidance with:

  • Writing in an academic context
  • Planning for deadlines and organising your workflow
  • Study skills (e.g note taking, time management and exam revision)
  • Research skills
  • Referencing
  • Written assignments
  • Understanding feedback
  • Presentation skills
  • Basic English language help* and other study issues

** Please note, the Academic Success Centre does not offer a proof-reading service.

 


How does it work?

All HE students (any subject, any level) are welcome regardless of the grades you receive. No question is too small or too daft! There's no judgement through the Academic Success Centre—we just want to support you and help you improve your work, and if we can't help then you will be guided to someone who can.

To book your slot please head to the 1-2-1 Sessions Tile on your VLE dashboard and choose a time that suits  . If you have any further questions or need to arrange a different time then please email the Academic Success Centre directly at:  academicsuccess@pointblankmusicschool.com  

When you attend the drop in please ensure you come prepared with the right information (assignment details etc). Make sure you are specific with the support you require and prioritise your queries. And most importantly—try not to leave it to the last minute!

The Academic Success Centre is here to support you every step of the way. We guide you through your degree to keep you on the road to graduation and professional success. We are friendly and approachable and will help you get the utmost benefit from the course.

Supporting you is central to our mission at Point Blank Music School. We are here to guide you as you become the best version of yourself and provide you with the skills you need to succeed at University.
