All groups have a class rep now, please check who yours is. I have added this to the course organisation site, under student voice and Microsoft teams channel. We have now allocated you some level 5 and 6 mentors and your academic advisors will soon be adding them to your Microsoft teams group chat. They will be a great source of information and support.
