Dear all I know we have had some discussions around this in July/Aug but I have checked the archives and they do not fully answer my queries. Here at Derby the re-sit exams coincided with the last two weeks of Ramadan and some were even scheduled at Eid. I have been asked by our Directorate to write a paper around this. Can I please check with you the following: * Did your University schedule re-sits for Ramadan and Eid? * Were your students given the opportunity to re-arrange if they clashed with religious observances/celebrations? * If your International students had returned home were they given the opportunity to sit these in their home country? * Were any allowances given to students that were fasting? * Are there any other issues that came up during this time? Please respond to my email below and I will collate any responses for anyone else who is interested.
