Grading
How grading systems and grade computation work
Overview
Decimal's grading system converts raw marks into meaningful grades using configurable grade boundaries and assessment weights.
Grade computation
The final grade for a subject is computed using weighted components:
Final Mark = (Classwork x Weight_CW) + (CA x Weight_CA) + (Exam x Weight_Exam)
Example:
Classwork: 85 x 0.15 = 12.75
CA: 72 x 0.25 = 18.00
Exam: 68 x 0.60 = 40.80
─────────────────────────────
Final Mark: 71.55 → Grade: B
Multiple grading systems
- Letter grades: A, B, C, D, E, F with configurable boundaries
- Percentage: Raw percentage display
- GPA Scale: 4.0 scale (common in universities)
- Custom: Define your own grade labels and boundaries
Report card grades
On report cards, each subject displays the letter grade, the numeric mark, the teacher's comment, the subject class average, and the student's position in the subject.
