If a meeting has been arranged over a buffet lunch, informal discussion should be kept relatively brief and the meeting should then be convened formally to ensure proper coverage of key areas. Reviewers are seeking the views of students on the six aspects of provision and should ensure that a clear agenda is outlined. Reviewers should allow time for students to raise points. The review team may also take into account the views of recent former students who are able to give either an informed overview of the provision or of the quality of the graduates or diplomates, and employers or other representatives from the relevant industry or profession. Scrutiny of Documentation 70.
Reviewers also gather evidence through scrutiny of documentation.
The evidence base drawn on includes reports and advice from external sources such as external examiners, employers and validating and accrediting bodies, as well as internal documents and reports. In each case, judgements are based on the principle of fitness for purpose in relation to the stated aims and objectives and the extent to which they are being met. All team members are expected to share information gathered which is relevant to any aspect of provision, but individual reviewers may co-ordinate the evidence related to particular aspects of provision. Review Team Meetings 72. The review team meets daily to discuss its findings, normally at the end of the afternoon or in the early evening.
