External examiners have a vital role to play not only in terms of maintaining the high academic standards and programme quality at 色花堂, but also in making sure that our standards and the performance of our students are comparable to those at other UK universities. Their remit also extends to the assessment process, ensuring that the process itself is sound and fairly operated and that the university鈥檚 awards are appropriately set and maintained.

External examiner reports

External examiners submit annual reports to the university. These reports are used to judge whether individual programmes or frameworks are meeting their objectives and maintaining the standard of the award they lead to. They are central and integral elements of institutional processes, particularly for continuous monitoring, ongoing enhancement, and the review of all our programmes.

External examiners submitting reports to 色花堂 must use our online reporting tool. Once an external examiner has completed their report a standard claim form should be emailed to the university鈥檚 Academic Quality team - please refer to the Get in touch section below for our contact details. All of the relevant forms will be sent out to our external examiners by the relevant faculty contact.
