Assessment submission details

ASSESSMENT SUBMISSION DETAILS

Details of assessment submission are available in the Module/Unit Handbook. Assessments must be submitted on or before the submission date. You will be given the submission details by your module tutor. Most assessments must be submitted via Turn-it-in, however, for assessments where this is not suitable, a hard copy of the assessment should include a cover sheet that has been signed by you and the tutor upon receipt.

Your work will be marked and feedback will normally be provided within 4 weeks of the submission date. NB All marks are provisional and will be subject to internal and external quality assurance.

MISSING AN ASSESSMENT DEADLINE

If you fail to submit an assessment by the prescribed date without prior permission, a penalty will be incurred. The penalty is dependent on the Regulations approved by the Validating University or Awarding Organisation (please check) and will either be a reduction in your mark or the assessment will be deemed as a non-submission (NS). Any assessments which are handed in late, without formal approval through the HE Scheme may jeopardise your continuation on the course.

HE SCHEME BOARD OF EXAMINERS

The Scheme Board of Examiners decides on the progression of individual students through Degree courses and awards Degrees and other qualifications. The Board of Examiners also decides if a reassessment opportunity is permitted and sets the reassessment deadlines.

Approved marks are issued within four weeks of the Board of Examiners. Students are entitled to receive indicative feedback on performance in assessed work within four weeks of the assessment deadline. It has been agreed that it is not necessary to wait until the Board of Examiners to release provisional numeric marks.

Extensions to deadlines and additional consideration

The extensions to deadlines and additional consideration process is in place to support students who have medical or personal issues which have an impact on their ability to attend teaching and undertake assessments because they occur suddenly, unexpectedly, or are severe in nature. There is no definitive list of such situations, and the College recognises that difficulties impact people in different ways. If you consider your studies are being affected by your personal circumstances, you should discuss this with your Course Tutor or the HE Office in the first instance. The earlier the College is made aware of any impacting circumstances; the earlier support options can be made available. The options available to students differ depending on the partner university or awarding organisation, please ensure you refer to the correct form for your course. For more information, please contact HE@craven-college.ac.uk
