Notice Title

Academic Assessment Consultancy Services Invite to Pitch

Notice Description

The LSE intends to seek an expert consultant partner to assist a newly formed Academic Assessment, Progression and Award Related Regulations Review Project Team to take this work forward and will look to their advice on approach and scope within the specified timescales. This is the School's current thinking. The whole landscape of the assessment, progression and award related regulations are, in theory, in scope but the School is aware of areas that offer particular operational or staff/student experience challenges. We know they are also challenging for other UK HEIs and so also more likely to have new best practice for the School to reflect upon. We also are aware that prioritising will be required to fit within the timelines.
