A c<strong>and</strong>idate who is found to have cheated in any examination or assessment shall<br />
normally fail that assessment. Further, The <strong>Assessment</strong> Board will report the<br />
c<strong>and</strong>idate to the Law Society where it is of the opinion that the offence has a bearing<br />
on the c<strong>and</strong>idate’s character <strong>and</strong> suitability to be an immigration or asylum<br />
caseworker.<br />
<strong>Assessment</strong> offences include (but are not limited to):<br />
• Copying, stealing, appropriation or use of the work of another<br />
• Permitting or assisting another to copy, appropriate or use one’s own work<br />
• Taking into an assessment any materials or aids other than permitted<br />
materials<br />
• Consulting unauthorised material, in or outside the assessment room during<br />
an assessment<br />
• The use of a mobile telephone during the assessment<br />
• Being party to impersonation where another person sits an assessment in the<br />
place of the actual c<strong>and</strong>idate or a c<strong>and</strong>idate is knowingly impersonated by<br />
another<br />
• Leaving the assessment venue to refer to concealed notes<br />
• Using, attempting to use, assisting another to use or attempting to assist<br />
another to use any other unfair, improper or dishonest method to gain<br />
advantage in any part of the formal assessment process<br />
• Obtaining an unseen assessment in advance of the assessment<br />
• Paying or offering inducements to another person to obtain an advance copy<br />
of an unseen assessment.<br />
• Making false declarations in order to receive special consideration by<br />
<strong>Assessment</strong> Boards<br />
• Falsifying information<br />
• Plagiarism i.e. where the published work or ideas of another person are<br />
presented as a c<strong>and</strong>idate’s own.<br />
• Presenting or submitting work that is not the c<strong>and</strong>idate’s own unaided work.<br />
Note: The above list is not exhaustive.<br />
3.5 Marking <strong>and</strong> Moderation Process<br />
One of the most important aspects of assessing a c<strong>and</strong>idate’s examination script is to<br />
ensure that marking is always fair <strong>and</strong> consistent. The procedure we apply is fair <strong>and</strong><br />
rigorous. All the Written Examination scripts are blind marked the assessor only<br />
knows the c<strong>and</strong>idate’s ID number.<br />
