LSBU Law and Technology team win teaching award
Our Law & Technology team has been named one of the 2024 winners of the prestigious Collaborative Award for Teaching Excellence (CATE) by Advance HE.
The Collaborative Award for Teaching Excellence (CATE) recognises and rewards collaborative work that has had a demonstrable impact on teaching and learning and highlights the key role of teamwork in UK higher education.
The LSBU Law & Technology team were recognised as they offer collaborative project-based learning that enhances student employability through real-world projects, community engagement, and innovative teaching methods. They prepare students for employment in the digital economy, contribute significantly to current academic debates and support access to justice within their local community.
Fifty-five higher education professionals and 17 CATE teams are recognised for their outstanding contribution to excellent teaching.
Professor Tara Dean, LSBU Provost, said, “It’s fantastic to see LSBU staff recognised in this way. As we look towards another exciting academic year, this award underlines the fact that LSBU is the top choice for students wishing to study Law in a supportive, collaborative environment in the heart of central London.”

“It is vital for student success that we invest in higher education teaching and promote the value of excellence.
“Congratulations to each and every one of you for this prestigious prize.”
