Dear Ralph,

 

I refer to your request dated 8 January 2025.  The University’s response
follows:

 

The information requested for 2024 is publicly available at [1]Grade
Distribution for All Papers In 2023 and 2024 - a Official Information Act
request to University of Auckland - FYI except for courses with low
numbers of students. Your request is refused under s 18(d) in respect of
the publicly available information and under 9(2)(a) in respect of courses
with low numbers of students, to protect their privacy.

 

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
[2]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.
 

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

 

Yours sincerely,

Farleigh Quinlivan
