The University is committed to ensuring that methods of assessment are effective in enabling every student to demonstrate the extent to which they have achieved the intended learning outcomes for the credit or qualification being sought in an equitable, valid and reliable way. The University meets that commitment through its policies and procedures. This policy has been written to signpost the relevant policies and procedures showing compliance with the requirements of Chapter B6 of the UK Quality Code for Higher Education ‘Assessment for students and the recognition of prior learning’ available on the QAA website .
It is an established principle of the University, endorsed by Executive Board and Teaching and Learning Board, that when registered for a University of Nottingham qualification all teaching and assessment must be in English. The only exception is where the subject of study is a language or literature other than English.
The volume, timing and nature of assessment should enable students to demonstrate the extent to which they have achieved the intended learning outcomes.
Assessment must be carried out securely, including the secure storage of assessment questions, the appropriate invigilation of examinations and the confirmation of student identity in the submission or sitting of assessments.
