      Failing and the possibility of failing are everyday experiences in higher education, yet rarely discussed. This text explores failure from different vantage points: its social and political context; its implications for teachers and learners; and the practices and procedures of the assessment, support and administrative systems surrounding failing students in higher education.;The text integrates discussions of drop-out, retention and student progress alongside the notion of academic failure. While management of student "through-put" is of interest to politicians, educators have to manage and understand failing as an important part of the process of learning.;This work incorporates new empirical data along with practitioner experience and analyzes practice issues within a policy framework that takes into account past and current political trends.
