Building your own grading system

If none of the presets fit, owners can build a custom grading system in Settings under Grading system. Start from a preset to load its values, then edit and save.

What you can configure

• System label — the name of your system.
• Aggregation — weighted average, or GPA with credits.
• Uses credits — whether subjects carry credits.
• Term structure — Year, Semester or Quarter.
• Max score — the highest mark a teacher can enter.
• Scale bands — rows of minimum, maximum, grade name and points. Leave empty for a plain numeric system.
• Thresholds — the passing and honor-roll marks.
• Labels — what to call the overall figure, the transcript and credits.

Rules to keep in mind

• The maximum score must be a positive number.
• If you use bands, they must start at 0, not overlap, increase in order, and have unique grade names within the max score.
• A GPA-with-credits system must give points for every band.

Note: Any change applies across the school. Study year Levels still select the matching profile, so set them on the Grades page.
