Module results reporting
Module results are reported after each examination diet in January, May and at the re-assessment diet in August. Taught Postgraduate modules are also reported in October. Schools should use the MMS system to upload results for each module. This can be accessed here.

Grades 7.0 - 20.0 |

F |
Grades 4.0 - 6.9: Fail with right to re-assessment |
| F |
Grades 0.0 - 3.9: Fail with no right to re-assessment |

0 P |
Exceptionally for a small group of modules including EN 5100, EN5101, BL5015 that operate on a pass/fail basis |
|
0 X |
Denotes a failure to complete module requirements: This grade should be applied where a student has failed to complete the work of a module without good reason, and should be applied where a student does not register for, or does not attend, any examination without good reason. The student is not entitled to a re-assessment opportunity for this module. |
|
0 D |
Deferred assessment: This grade should be applied if there is a good medical or personal reason for the inability to complete any part of the assessment requirements. Arrangements must be made locally to complete the assessment and report the deferred result. Please enter an expected date of submission for the deferred assessment. |

Result undecided: Use this code when a student's module result is unresolved due to mitigating circumstances or for some other valid reason. Please enter a brief comment and submit supporting documentation to Registry. This code should only be left temporarily on a student record. |

S |
Applies if a student`s module was affected by special circumstances. The grade should not be altered but reported with the annotation S (e.g. 6.0 S). Students with reported grades annotated S will be discussed at the Special Classification Board when their degree is classified. Modules with this annotation may be discounted in the calculation of the algorithm. |

M |
Denotes Decanal intervention. |
Each School, or where appropriate, department should have an official designated member of staff who will be responsible for signing module results. This should be the Head of School, Director of Teaching, or an authorised Examinations Officer.
Once the School has submitted the uploaded Module Marks these will be authorised by the Dean of the Faculty prior to the final Module being calculated. Results will only be published after they have been calculated, and will not be available in the Data Warehouse until after the next refresh - potentially the following day.
Important note:
Schools should report late and deferred assessments directly to the Dean of Faculty in a letter from the Examinations Officer. The MMS reporting facility will not be available for reporting late results.
Separate sheets attesting the approval of the process by the examining board, including the external examiners, must be submitted to Registry with the signed module results sheets.
