This study presents an approach adopted within a large Academic School to re-engage students who might otherwise have been withdrawn from the system. The work presented contributes useful knowledge in two areas: firstly, in recognising the potential of re-engagement using a connected triage approach (forming effective partnerships between the student, the academic team and central guidance). Secondly, it found that 68% of students identified at potential risk of withdrawal had multiple intersections of protected characteristics.&nbsp; The three highest characteristics were found to be non-traditional entry qualifications, students with traditionally low participation rates (Polar 4 quintiles 1&amp;2) and students from the most deprived neighbourhoods (IMD quintiles 1&amp;2). The work conducted in this study enables at risk students to be identified earlier; hence affording more targeted support plans to be put in place to support their learning journey when appropriate.<br \/>\nKeywords: retention, engagement, withdrawal, evidence-based research, protected characteristics<\/p>\n<p><strong>Documents:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/journals.staffs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/An_evidence-based_approach_to.docx\">An_evidence-based_approach_to.docx<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/journals.staffs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/An_evidence-based_approach_to.pdf\">An_evidence-based_approach_to.pdf<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/journals.staffs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/\"><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/journals.staffs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/\"><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/journals.staffs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Volume: 6 Issue: 1 Year: 2024 Author(s): Jess Power University of Salford, Stella Jones-Devitt Staffordshire University, Alison Griffiths Staffordshire University Abstract Improving student retention and engagement is a high priority for the sector.
