High Court refuses judicial review of a decision that a student must repeat her third year of her university education course, on the grounds that the decision was not amenable to judicial review, and in the alternative there was no error in the decision.
Judicial review – student challenging decision that she needs to repeat Year 3 - student sustained an ankle injury – unable to attend - Extenuating Circumstances Form - procured the agreement of certain national schools to her completing her SP3 with them - proposal was not accepted – exam results - overall result was deferred - complains that no explanation or reasons accompanied the results - appealed her results to the Examination Appeals Board (EAB) on the basis that the PAB did not give sufficient weight to any extenuating circumstances previously identified – appeal rejected – judicial review proceedings issued – correspondence - PAB/EAB Process - Reliefs Sought – amendable to judicial review - sufficiently public element – alleged failure to take alternative proposals into account or show flexibility – no discretion – delay - no basis in any event for contending that the results should have issued sooner - duty to Give Reasons – no error of law or fact -
