44consideration of assessment results for shared Programmes and Modules

Where Programmes involve more than one School, and/or where Modules, teaching or services are shared, the following apply:

1. 
   The Programme will be assigned to a School which will own, and be the ‘home’ School for, that Programme.
   

2. 
   The Module will be assigned to a School which will own, and be the ‘home’ School for, that Module.
   

3. 
   Where Modules are shared:
   

• 
  Preliminary results and student performance data will be considered by the home School for the Module, in advance of the relevant Assessment Boards. This is to support the decision-making process and identify any relevant matters relating to the specific cohort or Module. Where appropriate, a briefing note will be prepared for the Assessment Board.
  
• 
  Representatives from all Programmes involved in those Modules will be involved in these discussions and a Module Panel may be held (see Section 6.9.1).
  
• 
  The results for the Module will be confirmed by the relevant Assessment Board for the Module in its home School

   The Assessment Board for a Programme in its home School is responsible for:
   

• 
  managing the panels which report to the Assessment Board (unless the Panel relates to Academic Misconduct for a Module owned by another School). Extenuating Circumstances Panels will normally be managed by the home School for the Programme, but may be managed by the home School for a Module if is requested by the Dean of the home School for the Programme.
  
• 
  considering and agreeing the results for Modules owned by the School
  
• 
  making decisions on progression and Award.
  

5. 
   If the ‘home’ Assessment Board for a Module has not yet met, results for students from another School who have taken that Module will remain provisional until confirmed by this Board.
   

6. 
   Where a student has taken a Module owned by a different School to the ‘home’ School for their Programme, the ‘home’ Assessment Board for the student’s Programme cannot adjust the Module marks agreed by the other School.
