Undo resits

Superusers can undo a resit if it's no longer required or if you need to make changes to the first sit record.

You'll need to remove the resit record if:

  • you need to make changes to the first sit e.g. changing marks
  • it's no longer required, e.g. special circumstances and the student has a null sit
  • the record was created in error e.g. accidently using the R grade

The resit result must be unpublished and unratified before you can remove the record.

You can still remove the resit record after marks have been entered but they'll be deleted along with the record.

Process summary

  1. Go to Process Course Results
  2. Filter or search for the students you want to process
    • E.g. filter to show only students in resit
  3. Select the students
    • Use the tick boxes on the left to select all or specific students 
  4. Click the Action menu and select Undo resits
  5. Check the information on the pop up box and click Continue

The student records will now be returned to the first sit with unratified results.

If you're changing the first sit marks and the new result will create another resit record you should also unpublish the first sit result. 

If you don't then when you ratify the new first sit result it may look like you can't publish it because the resit record will appear as soon as you ratify. See the following page for guidance in this scenario:  I've undone the resit, changed the first sit result and it created a new resit record.
