Assessment must be designed to contribute to high quality student learning and underpin the development, delivery and quality assurance of units and courses. Assessment should both help students learn (assessment for learning) and measure explicit evidence of their learning (assessment of learning).

Assessment :

1. must be standards-based and provide evidence of the level of achievement with respect to learning outcomes and graduate attributes;
2. must be a transparent process carried out with honesty, integrity and confidentiality in line with the Mission of the University;
3. is integral to pedagogically informed learning and teaching;
4. must comprise a variety of tasks which are reasonably achievable by students; and
5. must be fair, inclusive and equitable for all students.
