Innovative Pedagogy Hub wins The Best Scholarship Impact Award
Published: 30 September 2025
The Hub was formally recognised with the Best Scholarship Impact Award at the 2025 SPS Learning & Teaching Awards for its impactful work in scholarship.
The Best Scholarship Impact award champions and celebrates examples of educational policy engagement or scholarship of learning and teaching which have had meaningful impact and influence on changes across the school, university or wider higher education sector. Examples, may include policy and strategic development, or commentary and reflection within the professional community as well as traditional or social media spheres.
Impact is of growing importance not just in the research space but in the scholarship space too. The committee selected the School-wide Innovative Pedagogy Hub as an example of an initiative that within its 2 years of existence has helped to created and sustain a network of L&T scholars in the school, to champion quality and innovation in the classroom and to showcase that not just locally but nationally through its annual conference which brings colleagues in from across the UK. As such “the Innovative Pedagogy Hub has become a vibrant, inclusive space where colleagues across the School and beyond connect, experiment, and grow together in their teaching practice.”
