Published for 2024-25


7. Approval of New ModulesÌý

7. Module Suspension or Withdrawal

1.Modules may be formally withdrawn by the department through the student record system prior to the cut-off date set by the relevant team in Education Services. Modules that are not being delivered in a specific academic session can be suspended until the next cycle.
2.Departments have an obligation to provide a core module that has been previously advertised to students as running, either as part of module selection or as part of marketing material given to applicants or offer holders. A core module must not be withdrawn without consultation with these offer holders and students.
3.If the withdrawal or suspension of a core module will affect currently enrolled students, these students must consent to it. If the withdrawal or suspension of the core module is beyond Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê’s control, for example, due to the loss of a staff member, the programme lead must reach an agreed compromise with the students.
4.If the withdrawal or suspension of a module results in a change to the published programme diet, as recorded in the programme summary, a programme amendment form must be completed and submitted to the relevant body for approval. The module must not be withdrawn/marked as inactive without this approval. For more information see Section 4: Programme Amendment.
5.Adherence to the cut-off dates for the curriculum maintenance cycle is essential for ensuring that the correct information is provided to students in line with the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê’s obligations under consumer protection legislation.
