Once your receive the results from an examination event, if you do not agree with them, you can submit an Enquiry about Results (EAR) application.


Examples of grounds for an EAR:


  • You feel the Examiner made an error during the assessment
  • Learner has been invalidated incorrectly
  • Examiner behaviour had an impact on the Learner's performance
  • A Reasonable Adjustment had been approved but not applied


Before completing an EAR application, please ensure that you have read the Enquiry about Results Policy to ensure that you have grounds for submitting an application.


The Enquiry about Results Policy and Form can be found at the bottom of this page.


Submitting an Enquiry about Results (EAR) Application


To submit an EAR, complete the form and return it to LAMDA by submitting an "Enquiry about Results (EAR)" Ticket and attaching your completed form. 


LAMDA will acknowledge receipt of your EAR application within 3 working days and a Lead Investigator will be assigned. 


The Lead investigator will conduct their investigation and provide a written outcome within 15 working days. The Investigator may contact you with additional questions or request for further information. 


If the investigation proves to be more complex, then the Investigator may require additional time before finalising their outcome. If this is the case, they will contact you to inform you, provide an update and extended deadline.


After receiving the outcome of the Enquiry about Results investigation, if you are still unsatisfied, you can then submit a Stage 1 Appeal.



Written Assessments


In the event that LAMDA receives an EAR for a written assessment, LAMDA will offer to re-mark the submitted written work at a charge of £50 per assessment. Remarking will only occur once payment has been received.

 

Remarking will be completed by the Chief Examiner’s Office and the outcome of this service will be the final result and will stand, irrespective of the mark originally awarded. Please note that results and grades may go down as well as up as a consequence of any re-mark.


NB: LAMDA cannot offer a re-marking service for practical examinations
