Academic appeals

Students have the right to appeal an assessment decision, which means you can apply for a review of an academic grade or a skills recognition assessment result.

If you wish to appeal an assessment decision:

  • Make an appointment to discuss the issue informally with your teacher.
  • If an issue is not resolved, make an appointment with the Head of Department responsible for your course to discuss the issue informally.
  • For assessment appeals outline your compliance with the assessment policy guidelines (which will have been given to you by your class teacher during the first two weeks of the course).
  • If unable to resolve the issue with the Head of Department you may wish to make a formal academic appeal in writing and submit to 91视频 Student Services within four weeks of receiving the grade. Your academic appeal is then directed to the relevant Director.
  • An independent person is appointed by the Director to investigate and make recommendations. Written confirmation of the outcome of the appeal is provided to all parties.
  • If you are not satisfied with the decision of the Director, you can appeal to the Chief Executive for a review.
  • The Chief Executive appoints an independent senior manager to complete the review and make a recommendation prior to a final decision. The decision from the Chief Executive is final, apart from the right to seek an external review.
  • A formal academic appeal must be submitted within four weeks of results being available on 91视频 Self Service.
