Disaggregating the BAME degree-awarding gap: understanding and exploring the 'Asian' student experience
Disaggregating the BAME degree-awarding gap: understanding and exploring the 'Asian' student experience
This report showcases one aspect of The University of Winchester’s efforts to closing gaps in access, success and progression for a particular student demographic. Having noted a large degree-awarding gap between UK-domiciled White and “Asian” students, this report collates the findings of a research project aimed at better understanding the university experiences of our “Asian” students to begin understanding this large disparity. The research importantly highlights the significance for universities to disaggregate between and amongst their “BAME” students – offering a critique on the sector’s over-reliance of the term “BAME” to capture an experience which is inherently heterogenous and therefore requires targeted measures for effective redressal.

Abstract
This report showcases one aspect of The University of Winchester’s efforts to closing gaps in access, success and progression for a particular student demographic. Having noted a large degree-awarding gap between UK-domiciled White and “Asian” students, this report collates the findings of a research project aimed at better understanding the university experiences of our “Asian” students to begin understanding this large disparity. The research importantly highlights the significance for universities to disaggregate between and amongst their “BAME” students – offering a critique on the sector’s over-reliance of the term “BAME” to capture an experience which is inherently heterogenous and therefore requires targeted measures for effective redressal.
