The College Marking Framework is an important reference point for setting and maintaining academic standards across the University.

The framework includes:

  • Marking Models
  • College Marking Schemes
  • College Marking Criteria

The College Marking Framework provides guidance for all assessment practices and promotes consistency across taught programmes with the aim of enhancing the student experience of assessment. The framework was approved by College Education Committee in November 2021 and noted for information by Academic Board in December 2021. It was piloted in some faculties in 2022-23 and is the College Marking Framework for all faculties from September 2023.

The College Marking Criteria also provides a frame for the setting of learning outcomes and supports faculties and assessment sub-boards in refining their faculty, discipline or assessment-specific marking criteria.
