Failed a module because of a small mistake and I'm scared

I study Games Design at Staffordshire University and I failed one of my modules because I forgot to include the project files for my work which gave me 33%. For my forum posts showing the process of me making my game I got 68% but I needed to get both the forum posts and my project to 40% for me to pass the module. Im shaking and I'm worried I wont achieve the degree Im aiming for.

Hi,
I can see you're very stressed about this. It's important you stay in touch with your course leader so they are aware of your worries, so they can support you on this. There is also our Student Support team who can help you to cope with stress. These kind of things can feel overwhelming, but help is definitely there for you. Take care, Shaun

Hi Anon,

I'm so sorry to hear that this has happened and I'm hoping you're feeling a bit better about things now...
It happens to the best of us and I hope you have managed to get in touch with your course leader for some support regarding your concerns!

We have a range of support teams here at UoS and I would recommend getting in touch with them if you feel like it may help! I have been in contact with them personally a few times and I couldn't be more grateful for the help they've given me.

I will link some pages below as well as their email so you can get in touch!

I hope those help a little, please don't hesitate to get in touch with us too if you would like some student support!

Take care and look after yourself!
