TCD feedback system ‘needs overhaul’

Student feedback systems at Trinity College Dublin are ineffective and need to be urgently overhauled, international experts have told university chiefs.

In a hard-hitting review of the college, the country’s highest- ranked in most international comparisons has also been told that employers and other external stakeholders feel they have no system for engaging with TCD.

Following a visit in March, the international team of academics has commended TCD’s research and commercialisation activity, and efforts to widen access to mature students, those with disabilities, and those from disadvantaged backgrounds.
