Grading Method

If you change the grading method on this level, it will only be changed for the specific subject / academic level / academic report you are working on.

Outcomes

  • Select or deselect outcomes to include or exclude them from the academic report.

  • Drag and drop outcomes to reorder them.

  • If an outcome is missing but should be reported on, go to Subject Management and add the missing outcome. Once the outcome has been added, you have two options from this academic report screen:

    • Click Refresh and Delete Outcomes to add the new outcome to the list and remove the existing outcome from the academic report.

    • Click Refresh Outcomes to add the new outcome to the list without removing the old one.

Description

If your template supports subject descriptions, these can be added or edited in this field.

Include Comments

If teachers should not be entering comments against students for a specific subject, deselect this option and the comment field will no longer appear on the student entry page for this subject.

  1. Repeat the above steps for all subjects and academic levels.

Once you have defined the grading method and subject outcomes for academic reporting, you configure your academic report (see Configuring an academic report) and/or you prepare the data for student entry (see Preparing for student entry).
