Candidates are not allowed to leave the examination before it has finished
without the permission of the invigilator or to leave the examination room
temporarily for any purpose without the permission of the invigilator.
Invigilators are authorised to instruct candidates who are talking or
behaving in a disruptive manner to leave the room. Invigilators will report
candidates whose conduct appears to constitute cheating.
It is an offence to disregard a legitimate instruction given by an invigilator.
Candidates failing to comply with such instructions will be liable to
disciplinary action.
The statement also explains the range of penalties available in cases of academic
misconduct. The University's full definition of academic misconduct is available
on the Examinations Office website and the procedures for considering cases of
academic misconduct are contained in the Examinations and Assessment Procedures
Handbook, section 19.
Programme Handbooks include guidance on good academic practice, including
advice on referencing and on avoiding practices which may render a student
liable to suspicion of plagiarism.
8. Marking and moderation of assessments
Marking
Marking shall be carried out by appropriately qualified and properly appointed
persons. It should be noted that peer assessment may be used for formative
purposes and a marker's determination of a formal mark may be informed by
peer marking.
Anonymous marking
It is a requirement, in respect of all written examinations whether administered
centrally or by a Department, that scripts remain anonymous until marking has
been completed.
Wherever practicable and appropriate, coursework and in-class tests should
remain anonymous to the marker until marking has been completed.
Schools/Departments are responsible for determining whether anonymous
marking is practicable and appropriate in relation to coursework and in-class tests
in their modules. Where a School has agreed that anonymisation of
coursework/in-class tests is not practicable and appropriate, the School should
consider enhancing the moderation process for coursework/in-class tests and must
ensure that the extent of the moderation carried out is clearly documented.
Unless it is impossible, candidates should be anonymous during the moderation
process.
Criteria for marking and grading
Generic assessment criteria relating to mark ranges and classifications for first
degrees across the University are provided in the University-wide Framework for
