Carp when I was having issues with my summative I literally emailed everyone and copied in the trust who employs me too. Someone somewhere has to do something x

Our students can apply whenever, as long as the evidence is for the correct period. There are deadlines, but they are nonsense really. Just make a massive fuss. Get your student union involved. That's outrageous and smacks of lecturers covering up for one another. Raise a complaint if necessary.

EB - for things like this, where the request is after the deadline (or more often, after the relevant exam board), students have to put in an Appeal. Often almost the same process, just a different name. As long as you have evidence, you can put one in: emails, tutor meeting records etc.

That's all you need EB. Hope things start to look up soon.

Oh no EB :( So sorry to hear that. Get the student union involved, maybe they can help handle an appeal?

Spoke to my personal tutor today. If I haven't heard from my supervisor by Friday I can send the proposal to her and she'll look at it.

That's an improvement, Carp. Did she apologise? Or give an explanation?

No and no Linds. But I'm not good at challenging them.

That sucks. I'm sorry for the way you have been treated.
