ACADEMIC IRREGULARITIES

An Academic Irregularity occurs when there is cause to consider that work
submitted by a student is not wholly sound in terms of its academic
integrity.  

​

This may include, but is not limited to, plagiarism.  The Academy uses Turnitin to produce Similarity Reports.  

​

We have three categories of Academic Irregularity within our PGDip program:

​

• Poor Academic Practice – Cases of inadequate and poor scholarship

• Academic Misconduct – Minor/limited cases

• Academic Offence – Substantial cases, multiple minor cases

​​

We adhere to our Academic Irregularities Policy
