Each programme specification identifies the learning outcomes for an award, of which a student should demonstrate positive achievement, and the relationship of that programme to the Framework of Higher Education Qualifications (FHEQ).  In formulating your programme specification you should also consider the relevant Subject Benchmark statement and, if appropriate, indicate any substantial variation from this Benchmark. 

The relevant documents are available below together with any available supporting documentation.
