New Academic Assessment Guidelines

Big news, NTU undergraduates! 📚💡

After months of consultations, surveys, and advocacy, NTUSU's proposal for New Academic Assessment Guidelines has been implemented ✅

These provisions cover key areas such as:

⭐️ Class Scheduling – no regular lessons on Saturdays, Recess Week, and Reading Week (subject to approved exceptions); optional attendance for make-up and revision classes.

⭐️ Quizzes & Assignments – no regular quizzes during Recess or Reading Week; assignment deadlines set with adequate preparation time.

⭐️ Examinations – schools shall avoid scheduling multiple core exams on the same day; exams shall be held in Weeks 15 & 16.

⭐️ Attendance & Class Participation – more flexibility and breathing space for in-class participation

For a detailed outline and examples, please refer to the NTU Wellbeing Initiative Document.

The document is for reference and examples, to help you understand how these provisions will be implemented in your courses and assessments. We encourage you to read through it and familiarize yourself with the changes ahead.

✨ These changes were shaped by your voices 🗣️ and turned into real impact by NTUSU. Together, we’re building a culture of care. These wins are yours 💙
