Exam and End-of-Module Assessment Marking Policy

This policy outlines each of the different marking methods we use to mark your Exams and End-of-Module Assessments (EMAs) and when we will use them. It also explains how we ensure the quality of our marking, and where to go for support, to appeal your marks, or when something goes wrong.
