We do not allow retrospective re-marking. One such student has just complained about this to the OIA but the OIA has said that our policy is reasonable. Jackie Flowers Assistant Director, Academic Registry UCE Birmingham _____ From: Discussion list for disabled students and their support staff. [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Karen Hedley Sent: 06 December 2005 16:58 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: retrospective marking Dear all, Disability Services at QUB have recently been approached by academic staff regarding a policy on retrospective grading of coursework for students with dyslexia.Disability Services have advised academic staff that students will receive consideration for spelling and grammar from the point in which they register with the service and declare their dyslexia. However, it appears that there has been an increase in the number of students (newly diagnosed with dyslexia) asking academic staff to regrade their past coursework, based on their new diagnosis. Has anyone heard of this ever happening and if so, how is it dealt with? Thanks Linda Maguire Disability Services Coordinator Queen's University Belfast BT7 1NN 02890 973225
