Test Memo’s found in Students Portfolio of Evidence

Exam Invigilator during exams

The ICB has noted a steady increase in facilitator marking memos being left in student PoE’s. This may be a harmless mistake, however if detected, raises the suspicions of examiners; especially if the student performs well in the test.

Consequently, the college and the student are deemed a suspected irregularity and their results are withheld until a decision by the academic board has been made.

To avoid this inconvenience, please ensure that the facilitators/lecturers do not place memo’s into PoE’s. Invigilators checking PoE’s should look out for memos incorrectly placed, and remove them prior to submission to the ICB.

Under no conditions should memos be given to students. If this occurs, it should be remedied immediately.

Memos are strictly used by facilitators and lectures to mark tests and give feedback to students.
