What is Representation and What is Student Parliament?
Representation of students by students is a right that everyone of us can demand, it forms the basis of change and therefore has a direct impact on the lives of students now and in the future, we are the ‘consumers’ of the education system, we pay fees, we have a right to have a say on what happens within our institution.

Student representation is core to the development and improvement of education in this country, it is vital that you have your say.

Student Parliament is one of the most innovative of representative bodies across any students' union in the UK, and it ensures that the views of students are effectively communicated to their lecturers and senior management of the Institution. Representation has become absolutely crucial as we increasingly and rapidly put in place very new methods and processes of learning and teaching.

Becoming a member of Student Parliament will not only allow you to voice your concerns about your education, but it will also allow you to enhance your own transferable skills which are becoming a must-have addition to your CV.

Anyone can become an MSP, there is no need to be elected or nominated. If you care about representation and want to take the issue into your own hands then follow the instructions below.

More information on Student Parliament and becoming an MSP is available to all students in a booklet from the Students Union office.

Hello all MSPs!
This group has been set up to help MSPs to communicate and introduce themselves. What do you think should be included on this page? More information? A discussion forum? Really it is up to you guys whether this works and how it works, so please let us know.

Hi Everyone,
Just thought I'd introduce myself as the MSP for the Queen Margaret Fencing Club and invite any of you to come along to our training sessions on Thursdays from 7pm to 9pm at Musselburgh Grammer School. Age, gender and fitness are no barriers and, even better, it's free for the first session, so you have nothing to loose! Look forward to getting to know you all better. Stay cool, strangers.
