The department's Teaching Labs have recently been assessed under the LEAF* Scheme, which led to the award of a Bronze LEAF certificate.
The majority of the work to achieve this was made by Diana Passmore and Professor David Armstrong and would not have been possible without the Year 1 and 2 undergraduates being so willing to comply with the new protocols and policies.
*LEAF is the 'Laboratory Efficiency Assessment Framework' which encourages UK universities to review their established policies and procedures and to make changes to avoid creating unnecessary consumption or inefficiencies.
