'Unsatisfactory progress' is a term used to describe performance which is not up to the academic standard required by the faculty.
A student has made unsatisfactory progress in an education course if he or she:
has failed 50 per cent or more of their course load in one year/semester; or
has failed a compulsory subject more than once; or
has failed to progress through the course overall, according to prescribed requirements.
Students whose results have not met the required academic standard, may receive a letter at the end of the semester requesting them to appear before the faculty's Progress Committee to discuss their results and any problems that may have affected them. The committee's concern is to look at the options available for enabling a student to progress at a satisfactory rate. However, in some circumstances, the faculty's Progress Committee may recommend to the University's Academic Board that a student's enrolment be terminated because of poor academic progress.
The Education Faculty has also initiated a mid-year Students at Risk Program for all students. Results are monitored so that any student considered 'at risk' academically may be given extra support or appropriate referrals may be suggested.
