* These modules are a ‘Linked-pair’. If a student fails the first semester module, he/she will be
allowed to compensate for that failure by sufficiently high performance in the
second semester module (but high performance in the first will not be allowed to compensate for
failure in the second). The mark for a
‘linked pair’ is not ‘compensatable’; ie, to pass the year, students must
achieve at least 40% (not 35%) in linked pairs. For further details, see Pass
Requirements … section 1.3.

attend and successfully complete an approved course in Workshop Practice unless
given exemption by the Programme Director.
