Marking Boycott: Your Results
This week the University will start to release assessment results. We know getting your results should be a time to celebrate your achievements, but we’re aware this year there is a lot of uncertainty for students due to the ongoing Marking and Assessment Boycott. We’re sad students are in this difficult situation, particularly after the challenges of Covid-19.
Schools and faculties may have different approaches to unit results release. Most schools publish all unit marks on a pre-set results release day, some release marks for single units early, as soon as marking quality assurance is complete. Schools will publish marks and results and email you when you can access them in eVision. See the step-by-step guidance on viewing your assessment details and results.
Congratulations to those of you who’ve received your results – this is a testament to the hard work you’ve put into your degree during a challenging few years!
For those who are missing marks, we understand how disappointing this is given the effort you’ve put into your assessments. The most up to date information about how the Marking and Assessment Boycott may affect your results, and what you can do if it has, is available on the University webpage. University Student Services will be the first point of contact for queries about results and can direct you to the correct support. Contact student-services@bristol.ac.uk or telephone them on +44 (0)117 428 3000.
Our Academic Advice team are on hand to support you through this difficult time, and can offer guidance on making a complaint, or appealing your results.
What have we done for you?
- We've been pushing the university to be as clear as possible in its guidance to students on what to expect and what to do if you are missing marks.
- Students are still able to attend graduation ceremonies if you’ve been awarded a preliminary degree, pending classification. There will be no difference to the ceremony for these students
- Requested the university provides evidence to future employers or institutions for further study to explain the situation
- Called for universities, UUK, and UCEA to work with UCU to find resolutions and end the disputes.
In line with our active policy, voted in by students in November 2021, Bristol SU stands in solidarity with staff who are taking action over pay and working conditions. The University must work with and meet with UCU to bring this dispute to an end as soon as possible to stop and prevent further impact on students.
