in Years 3 to 5,</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:6.0pt;line-height:normal"><span style="color:black;mso-themecolor:text1">This email contains
an important
update regarding examinations and assessments. Please take the

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:6.0pt;line-height:normal"><span style="color:black;mso-themecolor:text1">Throughout the
unprecedented and
evolving situation relating to Covid-19, staff in the
Department and across the
University are working hard to ensure that, in the most
difficult of
circumstances, you can continue your studies and your academic
achievements can
be suitably recognised. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:6.0pt;line-height:normal"><span style="color:black;mso-themecolor:text1">We know that many of
you are
understandably worried about your assessments and, following
the communication
from the Principal on 30<sup>th</sup> March that time bound
examinations would
not take place during the Formal Assessment Period (20 April –
22 May), we have
been working on plans for alternative assessments. These plans
are outlined
below.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:6.0pt;line-height:normal">Following
University guidance, the assessment arrangements for Year 3
modules vary
depending on the percentage of planned assessment available. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:6.0pt;line-height:normal">PH359/PH379
and PH355 - The assessment for these modules will be based on
the existing
marks from the December diet of exams (PH359/PH379) or already
submitted continuous
assessment elements (PH355). </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:6.0pt;line-height:normal">PH352 and
PH358 – There is insufficient planned assessment for these two
modules and
therefore, in line with University guidance, we will set an
alternative open
book assessment for each, using Myplace. Further details are
provided in the
notes regarding open book assessments further below. Both
modules will be
marked on a Pass/Fail basis, and the already completed
assessment for PH358
will be included in determining the result for this module.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:6.0pt;line-height:normal">PH350 - Your
marks for up to three experiments will count towards the
assessment (scaled in
cases where only two experiments have been marked due to the
impact of the
Industrial Action). We are aware of your concerns about possible
variations in
marking and will moderate accordingly. Details of the moderation
process will
be made available at a later date.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:6.0pt;line-height:normal">PH351 - Any
student who failed module PH351 based on their December module
test mark being
less than 40% will have this attempt discounted and allowed to
take the
examination at the next available exam diet as a first attempt.
This is in line
with the University’s ‘no detriment’ policy, as outlined below.
