Final Grades for the Year

In grade six, final grades shall consist of a combination of grades for each unit, which will form part of the term and yearly test results. The unit grades will constitute 30%. The two termly tests shall comprise 20% each and the yearly test shall comprise 30%. For all other grades, end of unit tests are administered. These are combined with projects, home work group work and class work to determine end of term grades. Three end of term grades culminate as end of year results.

Assessment results will be entered in the permanent record and on the report sheet and will be communicated to all the relevant parties. Reporting to parents will provide opportunities for conferencing with parents at least twice per year. All teachers are expected to take part in this exercise.
