The School of Medicine at the University of Cardiff has apologised after it wrongly told four students they had passed their final exams and qualified as doctors. The four, who had taken up hospital jobs, had in fact failed one of their modules.

Four were told they had passed when they had failed, and another student was wrongly told he or she had failed the exam.
