9.6.1 Textbooks – Textbooks and/or appropriate Course materials (the “Materials”) may be supplied to Students on enrolment. We will supply you with details of the mandatory and optional Materials for your Course in your Offer Letter. The cost of Materials ranges from £150 – £300.

20. OTHER IMPORTANT TERMS

20.1 We may transfer our rights and obligations under the Contract to another organisation, and we will always notify you in writing if this happens, but this will not affect your rights or our obligations under the Contract.

20.2 This Contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms.

20.3 Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.

20.4 If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under these terms, or if we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations.

20.5 This contract is governed by English law. You and we both agree to submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts.
