Thank you for your request for information under the Official Information Act 1982 (OIA)
dated 20 May 2026 in which you requested:
“Could you please provide the information bullet pointed below for the following
papers, from the past 5 years: EPSY512; EPSY514; EPSY515; EPSY524; EPSY530;
EPSY531; EPSY532; EPSY535 and EDUC585.
1.
The average grade
2.
The top & bottom grade
3.
The number of students in each grade bracket (i.e., 3 in A+, 2 in A, 4 in A- etc.)”
Response to your request
Please see Annex A for the requested information, accurate as at 22 May 2026. Please note as
follows:
•
To see descriptions for the various letter grades, please visit the University website
here: https://www.wgtn.ac.nz/students/study/progress/grades
•
In relation to “blank” grades, these are students who have not had their final grades
entered into the system.
•
Due to very small class sizes, your request for information relating to EDUC585 is
withheld under s9(2)(a) of the OIA, to protect the privacy of natural persons.

Where the information has been withheld under section 9 of the OIA, no public interest in
releasing the information has been identified that would override the reasons for
withholding it.

If you have any questions about this decision, you can contact us by email at:
[VUW request email]. You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the
Ombudsman of this decision by contacting www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone
0800 802 602.
