Dear Zoey,

 

I refer your request of 22 November 2024.  The University’s response
follows:

 

I am writing to request the following grade distribution information for
the postgraduate Global Management and Innovation courses from the year
2024. If any of these courses were not offered in 2024, I would greatly
appreciate it if you could provide the grade distribution data from the
most recent year in which they were offered:

 

GLMI701

GLMI705

GLMI711

GLMI712

GLMI704

GLMI706

GLMI709

GLMI707

GLMI780

Business704

Business705

 

Specifically, I would like to request the following details for each
course:

 

Final grade distribution (broken down by grade, e.g., A+, A, etc.).

The mean numerical mark.

The median numerical mark.

The number of students who completed the course.

 

With respect to your request for mean and median numerical marks, 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 refusal of this part of your request under section
18(g) of the OIA.

 

With regards to GLMI 704 and GLMI 712 these courses have not been offered
or have no students enrolled for 2024, therefore this part of your request
is refused under section 18(g) of the OIA as this information is not held
by the University.

 

The information requested for courses with low numbers of students is
withheld under section 9(2)(a) of the OIA to protect the privacy of the
students to whom it relates.

 

The other information requested is attached.

 

You have a right to complain to an Ombudsman if you are not satisfied with
this response.

 

Yours sincerely,

Farleigh Quinlivan
