Concern over Awarded Marks

Once marks have been awarded and issued, they cannot normally be changed.

In circumstances where you are unhappy over an assignment mark or any aspect of the feedback given, you should contact the Module Tutor who should be willing to discuss and provide further feedback which can help you understand your mark. Please ensure that you have read your feedback before contacting the tutor. If this is your first submission, you may be offered the chance to resubmit, and this feedback will help you prepare for this. The University does not accept appeals against academic judgement, and as all marking passes through a thorough moderation process before it is published, requests for a re-mark will not be considered.

Administrative error

If the Module Tutor realises that they have made an administrative error, such as a mark being added up or entered incorrectly, or have overlooked something significant, they should notify the Student Office (as well as the moderator) to ask for this to be amended. As long as this is an administrative issue only, the Student Office can amend this without further approval.

Procedural issue

The department strives to ensure all marking and moderation policies are strictly followed. If however you believe that these policies were not adhered to, concerns should be raised with the Programme Management via your usual administrative support team email resource.
