This academic year Chester have found it acceptable to create a "Chester Blend" which is a combination of online learning and face to face which I think is unacceptable. Considering students pay £9,250 we should be provided with the service that compliments this.

After an entire year of online learning I can speak upon thousands of students to say it didn't work. People's stress levels, frustrations and mental health issues all skyrocketed at a disturbingly fast pace. Why put us through the same kind of pressure another time?

I myself am a Third Year dance student and have 7 sessions a week 2 of which are face to face, and I'm sure many other students out there face the same issues. 

If this is something you would like to change please sign this petition and share with friends and show the university it is not okay not reduce our contact hours nor reduce what we are paying for. We didn't sign up for this and it is NOT okay.

This petition looks at the University of Chester reinstating all sessions as Face to Face and giving and option of online services for people who may not be able to attend with valid reasoning. This is not an online university and shouldn't be treated like on either.
