Officer Accountability.

Throughout your time at Royal Holloway, students are represented by the sabbatical officers who are elected by the student body in our annual SU Elections.

They work on a range of issues relating to student life, listening to your thoughts and opinions while running campaigns and working with the relevant people and bodies to implement positive policy changes.

It is our responsibility as a students’ union to provide opportunities for students to hold the sabbatical officers accountable for the work that they do during their time in office. We hope that by taking a read through the sections below, you will gain a better understanding of the different ways in which this is achieved.

Officer Q&A

To ensure you have ample opportunity to hold your sabbatical officers to account, we have introduced ‘Ask the Officers’ where you can ask any question and gain a response from the relevant officer.

Every month, the President will organise an online Q&A session to answer the questions submitted. This will be hosted on Zoom and all students are welcome to attend. The other officers will attend the meeting as and when needed, dependent on the nature of the questions received.

Schedule for 2021 Q&A Sessions

Questions should be submitted no later than seven days before the Q&A in order for a response to be formed.

Questions can also be submitted at the Question and Answer session itself. If an immediate response is not able to be given, it will be noted and either answered via email within ten working days, or be included as part of the blog post (a written record of the Q&A session) which will be uploaded to this page within ten working days of the session occurring.

In the event of no questions being submitted, we will upload a video update of what we've been working on.
