Definitions:
Cheating – seeking to obtain an unfair advantage in the assessment of any piece of work.
Plagiarism – to take and use the ideas and/or expressions and/or wording of another person or organisation and
pass them off as one’s own by failing to give appropriate acknowledgement. This includes material from any
source such as staff, students, texts, resources and the internet, whether published or unpublished.
Copying – using another student’s work and submitting it as your own.
Policy:
• Student plagiarism and cheating in any form are unacceptable and will be treated seriously by Abbey College.
• When you are writing the answer to questions or a project, you must write in your own words. If you look up
resource material to help find the answers, you must correctly cite your work, using the Harvard system or one
of your choosing.
• Students must work independently and only in groups as required by the Assessment Instructions for group work
in an assignment. These instructions can be found in the description of the Assessment task. Copying:
• Students must not copy the work of other students. Students submitting the same work will be penalised by
having those submissions automatically fail.
• Students must not, for any reason, purchase or use assignments that they have found on the internet, such as
from ‘course hero’, or ‘homework market’. If you do, this is cheating and you will be penalised.

• If it appears that it may be plagiarised, use the Grammarly or Turnitin software program to check.
• Teachers will also do a random check of students’ typed assignment work by applying Grammarly or
Turnitin.
• If students are found to have plagiarised, your teacher may sit with you and show how to correctly reference
your work. You will then be expected to re-submit your assignment/s.
• Student results should be withheld until the work has been re-submitted. Assessors may ask to submit a gap
assessment task or give you an oral test to assess a written question.
• Clear notes will be taken in your student file about the communication with the student in relation to cheating
and plagiarism
• If students are found to have plagiarised on more than one occasion, you will be expected to meet with the
academic manager and may be issued with a Warning Letter.
• If students have plagiarised on multiple occasions, they may have their enrolment cancelled.
I have read and understand Abbey College’s Policies & Procedures regarding plagiarism and
