Mental Health & Wellbeing of Online PGT Students: Pinch Points & Good Practice

This guidance document and accompanying self‑assessment tool support programmes to identify and strengthen practice at key points in the student journey. Focusing on common pressure points, such as application, induction, assessment periods, and the dissertation phase, it highlights where uncertainty, workload intensity, and limited visibility of support can most affect student experience. The self‑assessment tool is designed to help teams reflect on current provision, prioritise improvements, and translate the guidance into practical, programme‑level action.

You can access the guidance and tool on the UKCGE website:
