UCL agrees principles for assessment support package in 2020-21

UCL is reviewing its package of support for student assessment in 2020-21 to take account of the continuing coronavirus pandemic. A panel of academic and administrative staff and Students' Union representatives have now agreed the principles on which the support package for 2020-21 will be based. The aim is to enable students to demonstrate the full extent of your academic capabilities, while making sure that a UCL degree continues to be regarded as amongst the best in the world. Your departments will contact you in mid-February to share the details of the assessment support package and what it means for you. The principles for 2020/21 are: - 1. We will support you all as individuals. Wherever possible we will remove or minimise barriers to learning and increase the support available to help you feel part of the UCL community, develop your knowledge and skills, and feel confident about taking assessments.
