This session is part of the HESPA Showcasing Good Practice Week 2026. The aim of this week is to provide a space for our members to share with each other the work they have done which they feel has been a particular success (or which they feel they learnt something valuable from), and to celebrate and promote the hard work of planners in the HE sector.
Synopsis:
Manchester Met’s innovative People, Equality Data Framework (PEDF) allows us to track and monitor our progress against our commitments outlined in our Inclusive and Diverse Culture (IDC) Strategy, one of the enabling strategies for our Road to 2030 Strategy. This session will detail how Strategic Planning and HR co-created the data Framework in Power BI to address inequalities that exist for students and staff. The framework enables us to focus transparently on where improvements are needed to establish and maintain inclusive learning environments and workplaces for all. The session will explore the impact of the insight and how it is being used to drive forward our inclusive institution. The session will include an in-depth exploration of the data framework in Power BI and how we have integrated good practise standards to create accessible and powerful insight.
Speakers:
Stephen Walsh, Planning and Insight Manager; Loren Dean-Austin, Senior Faculty Planning and Operations Manager, Amraze Khan, Head of EDI, and Dan Swain, Head of Planning, all from Manchester Metropolitan University.
