“You will appreciate that all information requests place some degree of
demand on a public authority’s resources in terms of costs and staff time
and that UCL may need to prioritise resources to other areas, or adapt its
usual approach to information compliance work, in order to meet the
unprecedented challenges we are all facing during the Coronavirus
(COVID-19) pandemic.
Therefore, we need to advise you may experience delays in receiving
responses to information rights requests during the Coronavirus (COVID-19)
pandemic.”

Dear Luqman,
Thank you for your Freedom of Information request of 4^th February 2022.
We have completed the compilation of information in response to your
request which read as follows:
I would like the mean, median, 10th, 25th, 75th and 90th percentile scores
in the last 3 academic years for the following modules:
COMP0015: Introduction to Programming
COMP0034: Application Programming for Data Science
COMP0035: Applied Software Engineering
CENG0014: Inorganic Chemistry for Engineers
CENG0021: Organic Chemistry for Engineers
CENG0022: From Molecules to Molecular Engineering
BENG0026: Tech Journalism: Analysis and Communication in Engineering and
Technology
BENG0027: Advanced Tech Journalism: Advanced Analysis and Communication in
Engineering and Technology
MSIN0035: Engineering, Technology and Innovation: The Long View
MSIN0048: Understanding Management
MSIN0053: Mastering Entrepreneurship
MSIN0059: Managerial Accounting for Decision Making
MSIN0066: Management Accounting for Engineers
MSIN0170: Strategic Performance Management
MSIN0171: Financial Management for Engineers
We can confirm that we do hold information of the description specified in
your request and this information is provided in the attached spreadsheet.
Whilst UCL is committed to openness and transparency, we are also mindful
of our obligations under the Data Protection regime, and therefore take
steps to anonymise data before it is released. We adopt the following
approach when releasing statistics that relate to people, to prevent
unauthorised disclosure of information that relates to individuals:
• Percentages that are based on a group of 22 individuals or
less are not provided, and this includes requests for percentile
information about marks.
• Averages based on 7 or fewer individuals are not provided.
We have identified that there is a risk of the identification of
underlying individuals in the information that you have requested. The
information withheld is personal information of third parties, or, if
linked with other personal identifiers in the public domain, would be
likely to become personal data. This information has been withheld under
Section 40(2) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA) by virtue of
Section 40(3A)(i).
Section 40(2) of the FOIA allows a public authority to withhold
information under the FOIA where (i) the requested information is personal
data relating to someone other than the requester and (ii) its disclosure
would breach any of the Data Protection principles. In this case, we
believe that the requested information could relate to and identify
individuals and therefore would be personal data. The disclosure of these
personal data would not be within the reasonable expectations of the
individuals concerned and it would be unfair to do so; this therefore
breaches the first Data Protection principle.
As the Section 40(2) exemption is an absolute one, there is no need to
conduct a public interest test.
You are free to use any information supplied for your own use, including
for non-commercial research purposes. The information may also be used for
the purposes of news reporting. However, any other type of re-use, for
example by publishing or issuing copies to the public, will require the
permission of the copyright owner.
If you are unhappy with our response to your request and wish to make a
complaint or request a review of our decision, please email
[1][email address]. Emails should include the words ‘Internal
Review’ in the subject and be marked For the Attention of the
Vice-President (Operations), alternatively you should write to:
Vice-President (Operations)

Please note, complaints and requests for internal review received more
than two months after the initial decision will not be handled.

apply directly to the Information Commissioner at the address given below.
You should do this within two months of our final decision.
