Official information request for grade distributions for PSYC321, PSYC327,
and PSYC335
We refer to your request for information under the Official Information Act 1982 (the
Act) dated 17 October 2024:
“I would like to request tables showing the number of students who achieved
each letter grade in PSYC321, PSYC 327, and PSYC335 for each of the five years
from 2019 to 2023 inclusive. For example, how many students achieved a A+ in
each course, how many achieved an A, A-, B+, etc. Please note that I am only
interested in the overall letter grades for each course for each year, not each
individual assignment within these courses.”
The information you have requested is attached. Please note, PSYC321 was not offered
prior to 2022. Therefore, your request for grade distributions in 2019-2021 for this course
is refused in accordance with s18(d) of the Act as this information does n0t exist .
You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of the
decisions made regarding this request. Information about how to make a complaint is
available a
