The grade should not be altered but reported with the annotation S (e.g. 6.0 S). Students with reported grades annotated S will be discussed at the Special Classification Board when their degree is classified. Modules with this annotation may be discounted in the calculation of the algorithm. Criteria for Marking The table provides full descriptors for each band of marks, which should help you to understand the mark you receive for any individual piece of work. Note: An essay or exam that falls within a specified band will typically contain a majority although not necessarily all of the criteria mentioned. In addition, criteria should be viewed in relation to what is appropriate for the level of the student being assessed.
