Codes and Policies
Essential Regulations for Students
-
For the School to function properly it is necessary that its members comply with certain rules and regulations. These rules
and regulations are published in the interests of fairness, consistency and transparency. Your signature on enrolment form signifies that you undertake to abide by the School Regulations. It is therefore important that you take the time to read and understand them.
Student Conduct
-
All students are expected to conduct themselves responsibly and with consideration for the other members of the School.
Codes of Behavior relate to specific regulations with respect to particular areas of the School, for example computer laboratories and School libraries. It is important to read these regulations in detail so that you understand what is expected of you.
Academic Conduct
-
While we are aware that only a few students consciously try to contravene the Assessment Regulations, you should be aware that there are ways in which you could find yourself having broken the rules inadvertently. Please read the guidance on plagiarism and collusion and the regulations on breaches of the assessment regulations.
-
If carried out knowingly, cheating and plagiarism have the objectives of deceiving examiners and this threatens the integrity of the assessment procedures and the value of the qualifications. It is unethical to try to gain an unfair advantage over other students, and for this reason the School imposes strict penalties on those students who intentionally contravene the Assessment Regulations.
