S.L. 327.455 Art. 11Assessment and progress.

(1) The assessment of each taught study-unit shall be completed by the end of the semester in which the teaching of the study-unit is held.

(2) Students who in any academic year fail in the assessment of not more than 20 credits for taught study-units, if following the full-time Course, or not more than 10 credits if following the part-time Course, shall be given the opportunity to re-sit the failed assessments during the September supplementary examination session. When it is not practicable or possible for the failed study-unit to be re-assessed during the current year, students shall not have the right to a supplementary assessment, but shall be required to refer the study-unit to the following year to be completed over and above the study-units for that year; or if this is not possible to re-do the study-unit during an additional year, which shall not be taken into account for the purpose of course duration.

(3) Students who fail in more than the number of credits permitted under paragraph (2) of this bye-law or students who after re-assessment fail to obtain credit for any study-unit shall be required to withdraw from the course.
