Dear M Davids,

 

I refer to your request of 28 June 2024. The requested information is
attached, subject to the following:

 

o The University does not hold final mark statistics. Grades, not marks,
are the University's final measure of academic assessment. Marks are
used for initial calculation of grades (see
[1]https://cdn.auckland.ac.nz/assets/auckla...)
but grades may be subsequently changed for various reasons, such as
aegrotat/compassionate consideration or academic misconduct. This
constitutes a partial refusal of your request under section 18(g) of
the OIA.
o The student grade information requested for BIOSCI 751 and BIOSCI 754
in 2023 does not exist as those courses were not offered in 2023. This
constitutes a partial refusal of your request under section 18(g) of
the OIA.

 

You have the right to make a complaint to an Ombudsman if you are
dissatisfied with this response.

 

Yours sincerely,

 

Landon Watt
Legal Advisor
Office of the Vice-Chancellor

Waipapa Taumata Rau | University of Auckland
