The institution adjusted the evaluation weights for the 12 students to be 30% for the formative test, distributed as 10% for each semester, and 70% for the quarterly exams, distributed as 15% for the first semester, 30% for the second semester, and 25% for the third semester, pointing out that the lessons scheduled for the final evaluation of the semester , for grades 1 through 12, are the same as the lessons for the same semester.
In the guide “Student Assessment Policy and Examination Assessment Controls for the Academic Year 2022/2021” - Second Edition, the Foundation clarified that calculating the student’s grades in the Certificate of Study Completion for the 12th grade is carried out according to five steps. First, the degree of the subject at the end of the academic year is calculated from the semester weights The three are for the formative and summative assessments, and secondly, the student’s total grades are the grades obtained from the “A” group subjects, which appear as “number” and “letter” in the certificate, and thirdly, the student’s average is extracted from dividing the total by the number of “A” subjects, and fourthly subject to Group "B" subjects for standardized central assessments, and are evaluated by letters and have no grades, and are not included in the total.
