The University has shown a strong performance across some of these metrics with 86% of final year students satisfied with their teaching (National Student Survey) and 82% satisfied with feedback and assessment, a significant increase on 2024.

Professor Gill Knight, Pro Vice-Chancellor (Academic Leadership and Student Experience), said: “This is a really positive move upwards this year for the University and testimony to the dedication and commitment of staff – particularly in those key areas of teaching across a range of subjects.

“This shows that the University is moving in the right direction for its teaching and learning with us now ranked overall 85th, moving up 16 places from 101.”

The good news comes days after the Daily Mail Good University Guide ranked the University of Wolverhampton first in the UK for supporting students who are the first in their family to go to university for the second year running.
