Understanding Your Marksheet

A failure to submit for assessment is usually characterised by receiving a summative assessment mark of 0. This result would be explained by the Assessor Submission Checklist section of the marksheet. This section would contain a ‘yes’ rather than the typical ‘no’ response, and should also contain either an explanatory statement or further information about why the assessors could not carry out the assessment of your unit.

This usually happens when a student fails to submit any of their assessment requirements when invited to do so at an assessment event.

This can also happen when a student fails to submit one or more of the assessment requirements for their unit. For example, if you did not submit a reflective evaluation or presentation for your unit, or submitted no selection of creative work, the assessor would be unable to assess any of the work you have submitted and so award the 0 fail mark.
