Abstract

An examination policy is obligatory in order to rationalize the various procedures associated with exams in every educational institution. It is the regulatory instrument that conveys credibility to exams despite its wide criticism of not being a true test of knowledge. This paper canvasses the need for every educational institution to have its own exam policy and presents what can be referred to as a model examination policy document which details the requirements of the 4 critical stages of an exam including the lecture period, preparations for the exam, the examination itself and results from the examination, from where any educational institution can tailor-make its own. It concludes with a clear procedure for aggrieved students to seek redress without being victimized.
