Assessment and Examination Rules and Procedures for Secondary Schools - 2009

4.5 Breaches of the Rules - Internal Assessment

  1. Each school must adopt a written policy for dealing with breaches of the rules relating to internal assessment results. It is expected that Breaches of the Rules - External Assessment will form the basis for schools' policies. School policies are monitored by the New Zealand Qualifications Authority as part of the Managing National Assessment systems check.

  2. The Principal's Nominee will investigate any report of a possible breach of the rules by a candidate in an internal assessment in accordance with school policy. The Principal's Nominee must allow the candidate an opportunity to make an explanation and will decide on any disciplinary action to be taken in accordance with the school's written policies and procedures. Candidates have the right to appeal any decision made by the school relating to any possible breaches of the rules under the school's documented appeal process.
