Reports
The most recent public review of our work was the Periodic External Review (PER), undertaken in 2019 by a team of reviewers from both our sponsoring churches and Durham University. The Foundation received a verdict of ‘Confidence’ in the key areas of teaching, formation, community life, continued ministerial learning, and governance.

Transparency Information
Transparency information shows the number of students who attained a particular degree or other academic award, or a particular level of such an award, on completion of their course with us.
It also shows these numbers by reference to:
- The gender of the individuals to which they relate
- Their ethnicity
- Their socio-economic background.
Unfortunately, because of the relative size of the Foundation and the spread of students across different categories, the majority of our data for this return has been ‘suppressed’, as it does not meet publishable thresholds.
(See the tab on the worksheet called ‘Rounding and Suppression’ – this means that any figure less than 20 becomes an ‘N’, and any field with ‘NA’ in at had no value in the first place. Figures have also been rounded.)
We discuss the raw data with those student representatives who attend AMG and SSCF (see page on Student Involvement) during their meetings across the academic year.
The transparency table workbook and guidance may be downloaded here.
