Hello Jemima
Assessment deadline extensions in light of lock down disruption
Due to the need to adjust to the immediate disruption caused by the Government announcement of new measures to combat Covid-19 on the evening of 4 January 2021, and in consultation with the Student Union the University recognises the need for some flexibility in assessment deadlines over the next couple of weeks. Consequently, undergraduate and postgraduate taught students will be given an automatic one-week (7 days) extension on all eligible assessments with deadlines between 11 January 2021 and the 1 February 2021.
Departments will inform students which assessments are covered by this automatic extension (i.e. are eligible). Deadlines will be updated in online systems in due course.
Further information on assessments with initial deadlines of 4 to 8 January 2021 is as follows:
Any late penalties accrued due to late submission of assessments with deadlines between 4 January 2021 and today 8 January 2021 will be removed.
Any self-certification requests currently submitted (from 4 January 2021 to 8 January 2021) will be returned to you to use again.
If you already have been granted an extension on an assessment within the window of the 4 January 2021 to the 1 February 2021 that is longer than one week, you will still receive the longer extension. This will not add another week to that extension.
If you require further or a longer extension then please contact your department in the normal way.
These arrangements do not apply to IFP or Degree Apprenticeship students. It should also be noted that this extension arrangement may not be possible in those departments where discipline specific limitations or PSRB requirements apply.
