Abstract

Whilst university data highlights that BAME students are awarded up to 33% lower assessment outcomes than their white counterparts, there is limited contextual information to explain why the situation arises. A small scale qualitative project sought to explore the barriers and enablers to Public Health students' learning experiences through semi-structured interviews. Emerging themes included the role of the family in their learning; the influence of peer groups and others in their motivation to study and becoming an independent student and these themes are viewed from a critical intercultural and intersectional perspective.
