And when you\u2019re choosing the right university for you, you want to feel confident you\u2019re going to have the best experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s why we\u2019re so proud Edge Hill University has been awarded the highest possible rating of gold for providing an outstanding student experience, and silver overall in the Teaching Excellence Framework (TEF). Every aspect of Edge Hill\u2019s assessment was rated \u2018outstanding\u2019 or \u2018very high quality\u2019. This means our efforts both inside and outside the classroom are acknowledged as creating a positive learning environment for our students. This TEF award is about recognising excellence in areas such as teaching, learning, support and student outcomes. Which helps give you a way to choose a university that offers a high-quality experience. They analyse national data and use evidence from staff and students to decide on their ratings which means they\u2019re looking at the big picture and listening to students themselves.<\/p>\n<\/div><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-src=\"\/\/www.edgehill.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/tef-results-2023-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Teaching Excellence Framework 2023 results for Edge Hill: Silver overall, gold for student experience, silver for student outcomes. with white background\" class=\"wp-image-184851 size-full lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.edgehill.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/tef-results-2023-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.edgehill.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/tef-results-2023-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.edgehill.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/tef-results-2023-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.edgehill.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/tef-results-2023-640x360.jpg 640w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/576;\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-vertical is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-8cf370e7 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What do our students say?<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Achieving this TEF rating is important to us, as it\u2019s recognition of what we do well.
