Restudy/ Trailing a module

Is "restudy a module" the same as "trailing a module". Please what is the difference.
Can I utilise both during my course.
Thanks.

Thanks. Here is what Teeside's Assessment Regulations for Undergraduate Degree Awards (here) says the difference is:
"4.6.1.1 Trailing Non-Compensatable Modules with a Level Average of ≥40%:
Students will be permitted to progress to the next Level of the course and to trail a failed module, on only one occasion within their course of study, in order to attempt that module again."
"4.6.2.1 Restudy Failed Modules Having Achieved ≥60 Module Credits:
Following reassessment described in Section 4.5, students who do not meet the progression profile described in Section 5.7, or eligibility for award described in Section 6.1, but have achieved at least 60 credits at the current Level will have their progression suspended. Such students will be offered one further attempt by restudying the failed module(s) and repeating them as though for the first time. This will normally take place at the next available opportunity."
So with "trailing a module" you get to progress to the next level, and re-attempt that same module alongside the other modules you'd be doing next year anyway. So your workload for the next year will clearly he higher. Whilst with "restudy a module" you do not progress to the next level and instead restudy just the failed module, and then take the assessment(s) for it. Assuming you pass, you'd then progress to the next level in the following year.

Thanks, hence can the restudy and trailing be utilise in the life time my course.
The situation is that, I failed 3 modules in my 2nd year and passed 3 modules having 60 credits then was given restudy option for the 3 failed modules.
After the restudy, I failed 1 module (20 credits-non compensating).
Hence at my current level I have 100 credits and 120 credits from the previous year, having a total of 220 credits with current level average score of 48% and total average score of 64%
But now have been withdrawn from the course.
In my view, I should have option to trail the module.
Can I appeal to progress to tail the module.
Kindly let me know.

I agree with you. The criteria for being allowed to trail one or more modules are below (taken from their Academic Regulations, which I linked to above). As far as I can see, you meet all the criteria. There is no rule which says you can't trail a module which you've already done a restudy for.
"4.6.1.1 Trailing Non-Compensatable Modules with a Level Average of ≥40%:
Students will be permitted to progress to the next Level of the course and to trail a failed module, on only one occasion within their course of study, in order to attempt that module again. This is subject to the following criteria:
a) An average of ≥40% across all modules comprising the current Level has been achieved.
b) The module(s) are ineligible for compensation as defined at approval.
c) A maximum of 20 credits can be trailed into the subsequent Level (this can be a single 20 credit module or two 10 credit modules).
d) The failed module(s) has been attempted at the first and/or second attempt.
e) The student has not previously been permitted to trail a module within their course of study.
f) Any module where academic misconduct has been proven will not be eligible for trailing.
Trailing of modules is not permitted from Level 3 to Level 4."
I suspect their decision is based upon the restudy rules below, particularly the part I've coloured in red.
"4.6.2.1 Restudy Failed Modules Having Achieved ≥60 Module Credits:
Following reassessment described in Section 4.5, students who do not meet the progression profile described in Section 5.7, or eligibility for award described in Section 6.1, but have achieved at least 60 credits at the current Level will have their progression suspended. Such students will be offered one further attempt by re-studying the failed module(s) and repeating them as though for the first time. This will normally take place at the next available opportunity. The mark gained following restudy will be awarded in full and, if necessary, reassessment opportunities will be available as detailed in Section 4.5. Unless otherwise approved, a module up to the value of 20 credits will be eligible to be compensated in accordance with Section 5.5. Restudy of a module is only permitted on one occasion."
You could interpret that as meaning that the re-study is the one further attempt (after the initial failure). However, the sentence ends, "and repeating them as though for the first time."
They even have a nice flow chart at the end of the regulations. I see no decision point which says, "Has the student already taken advantage of a restudy opportunity?" So the fact that you have should not exclude the opportunity to trail the failed credit.

Thanks so much,

I wanted to appeal but in the academic appeal regulations, it is written "you can't appeal for academic judgement ".
Please what does that mean?

Academic judgement is talking about the mark you've been awarded to a given module. If you were awarded 38% you cant appeal on the basis that you thought it was worth 42%.
However, you will be able to appeal on the basis that they haven't followed their own rules and procedures. Have you enlisted the help of the Students' Union yet? They'll probably be quite familiar with the appeals process.

I appeal through early resolution academic appeal to my school but they rejected the appeal saying " they do not allow students to trail a module that they have already restudied.
Please kindly help me identify which of the policy or regulation stated.
Will like to make official appeal.
Thanks
