51¹ú²úÊÓƵ

Nick Petford's apologia for the misdeeds of Bournemouth 51¹ú²úÊÓƵ in the Buckland case cannot go unchallenged (Letters, 11 March).

It was the view of the Southampton Employment Tribunal that originally heard this case that the university had permitted and had indeed aided and abetted the unauthorised re-marking of scripts. In upholding Paul Buckland's claim for constructive dismissal, the Court of Appeal went out of its way to praise the manner in which the Southampton tribunal had established this fact.
