Kia ora Rory

I refer to your information request dated 14 January 2022 made under the Official Information Act 1982 (Act). You have requested grade breakdowns for the 2021 LAWS302 and LAWS407 papers.

Please see attached a spreadsheet that shows the information you have requested.

For privacy and student wellbeing reasons, the University's standard practice is not to report on marks which relate to 5 students. Where the numbers are very low, there is a risk that the identity of these students could be determined/inferred, and that their personal information (i.e. their grades) could be revealed. We therefore withhold this information pursuant to section 9(2)(a) of the Act, and we do not consider that the reasons for withholding this information is outweighed by other considerations which would make it desirable in the public interest to make the information available.

We note that for each paper we have withheld the highest passing mark and the lowest failing mark. Revealing these marks would provide personal information about the highest passing mark and lowest failing mark a student in the class could have achieved. Additionally, where the grade is Fail D or Fail E, if there are less than 5 students, we have indicated this using <5.

We trust that this information will be helpful.

We note your right to seek a review of these decisions via a complaint to an Ombudsman. However, we would welcome the opportunity to discuss any concerns with you first.
