BSW/BSJ Enrolments

K Jack made this Official Information request to University of Auckland

This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for K Jack to read a recent response and update the status.

From: K Jack

Kia ora University of Auckland,

The university will soon disestablish the undergraduate Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) and is planning to, in future, re-route social work students through the new Bachelor of Social Justice (BSJ) and into postgraduate courses.

Please provide:
- Annual enrolments in the BSW, BSW(Hons), PGDipSW, MSW, and MSW(Prof) respectively for the years 2016-2024, and please also include projected enrolments in each for 2025-2026.
- Projected enrolments for the BSJ in 2025-2026.
- Any discussion materials, other documents, and communications between any senior management staff, the EDSW Dean's office, and the Head of School's office related to the decision-making process for the disestablishment of the BSW; including but not limited to any that consider or mention the problems that the disestablishment and future BSJ proposal will cause for student access in terms of funding

Please provide this information in an accessible, searchable format.

Ngā mihi,
K

Dear K,

 

I refer to your request of 1 November 2024.

 

As consultations necessary to make a decision on your request are such
that a response cannot reasonably be given within the original time limit,
the University has extended the time limit for your request under section
15A(1)(b) of the OIA. The new maximum time limit for the University’s
response is 20 December 2024; we will respond to your request as soon as
reasonably practicable. You have the right to make a complaint to an
Ombudsman if you are dissatisfied with this extension.

 

Yours sincerely,

Farleigh Quinlivan

Dear Kate,

 

I refer to your request of 1 November 2024. I apologize for the delay in
the University's response. The University's response follows.

 

" Please provide:

- Annual enrolments in the BSW, BSW(Hons), PGDipSW, MSW, and MSW(Prof)
respectively for the years 2016-2024, and please also include projected
enrolments in each for 2025-2026."

“- Projected enrolments for the BSJ in 2025-2026.”

The annual enrolment information requested is attached. The University
does not produce forecasts at programme or subject levels; this part of
your request is refused under section 18(g) of the OIA as the information
is not held by the University.

 

“- Any discussion materials, other documents, and communications between
any senior management staff, the EDSW Dean's office, and the Head of
School's office related to the decision-making process for the
disestablishment of the BSW; including but not limited to any that
consider or mention the problems that the disestablishment and future BSJ
proposal will cause for student access in terms of funding.”
No decision has been made to disestablish the BSW. The information
requested is not held by the University. This constitutes a refusal of
your request under section 18(g) of the OIA.

 

You have the right to make a complaint to an Ombudsman if you are
dissatisfied with the University’s response.

 

Yours sincerely,

 

Landon Watt
Legal Advisor
Office of the Vice-Chancellor
