Lecturer suing National College of Ireland called 10% reduction from reassessement 'unbelievable'

A lecturer told the High Court it was "unbelievable" that grades on eight dissertations for a Masters programme in his college would be marked down by 10% across the board, writes Ann O'Loughlin.

Keith Maycock, a lecturer in computer science at the National College of Ireland (NCI) at the IFSC in Dublin, agreed concerns about the dissertations went through the college's normal quality control processes and were eventually regraded with each result reduced by around 10% in a reassessment of them.
