Academic Conduct Panels make decisions arising from investigations into cheating or misconduct, and any consequent sanctions, and inform Subject Assessment Boards accordingly.
Cheating Allegation Panels (CAPs) review allegations regarding cheating in examinations.
Academic misconduct is a very serious matter; should you receive a sanction for your behaviour or actions this could have a material impact on your progression or award.
Should an allegation that you have breached the Code of Academic Conduct be upheld, the Academic Conduct Panel (ACP) or Cheating Allegation Panel (CAP) will decide on a suitable sanction.
You have the right to appeal any decision reached by an Academic Conduct Panel or Cheating Allegation Panel, and request that the decision be reviewed.
