We have already extended the submission date and do not expect requests without substantial AND SUBSTANTIATED reason, such as medical or serious personal/family circumstances. We will need sound evidence to support any request for an extension – e.g. medical certificate – and would expect to be informed well in advance in most cases.

23. Good luck and don’t worry

24. Plagiarism Can often be inadvertent
Students should be aware by STAGE 4
Most cases involve the incorporation of numerous and direct quotations from published work, without full referencing
Internet plagiarism is not difficult to detect
Tutors are familiar with many texts
The consequences are extremely serious
