What is the Education Zone?
The Education Zone is the section of the BLSA that is responsible for the support of the students’ studies while they are here at Barts and The London.
They will liaise with the university staff to help support your exams and answer questions, as well as signposting you to academic support offered by both the Students’ Union, as well as the University.
The Education Zone is led by our BLSA President (Rahma Hegy), and consists of a group of representatives.
