Examination Appeals Procedure for Blue Badge ( Level 4 ), Green Badge (Level 3) and Language Tests
Candidates at Level 4 and Level 3 in the first instance are encouraged to consult their Programme Director. If , however , a candidate wishes to make a formal Appeal , the procedure to follow is set out in The Institute’s bye laws.
It is a candidate’s responsibility to read and understand the Appeals Procedure and in particular to be aware that any consideration relating to the assessment which takes place as a consequence of an Appeal may lead to an adjustment of the original decision relating to the award in a way which is more , or less, favourable to a candidate.
Payment of the £35.00 administration fee must accompany any appeal.
1.1 The Appeals Procedure is concerned solely with the result of the candidate’s examination/test.
The bye laws prescribe the only acceptable grounds of appeal as :
- that the examination/test had not been in accordance with The Institute Examinations Procedure Regulations such that the result might have been affected ;
- that the candidate believed that his / her performance in the examination/test had been materially impaired by ill health or other circumstances which the candidate had been unable , for valid reasons , to divulge to the Examination Administrator / Chair of Language Committee or to an examiner on the day of the examination.
- that the candidate had reason to believe that one or more of the examiners was prejudiced or biased;
1.2 The Appeals Procedure is set out in the bye laws of The Institute.
