Findings and response following quality assessment of business and management courses

The University of Wolverhampton welcomes the thorough findings of the Office for Students (OfS) assessment of our business and management courses and acknowledges that a breach of condition B4 had occurred.  

Prior to, and since the assessment team visited, the University conducted an internal review of its academic regulations to ensure they deliver the academic rigour and student outcomes expected. The finding of this internal review reflected those of the OfS quality assessment report, whereby the regulation permitting three assessment opportunities for semester one modules resulted in an inconsistent delivery of assessment.  

Following this review, the University took immediate action to remove the specific regulation in breach of condition B4 from its academic regulations.  

The change was approved by the University’s Academic Board in March 2024 and applies to all enrolments from January 2025 onwards. The revised academic regulations reflecting the change can be viewed here: https://www.wlv.ac.uk/about-us/governance/legal-information/regulations-codes-of-conduct-and-bye-laws/academic-regulations/.
