What type of student progress reporting method does your COUNTRY use for school-age children?

What type of student progress reporting method does your COUNTRY use for school-age children?





I'm refering to the method that comes home to parents -- "grade cards", "progress reports", "report cards", etc.





Mostly, I'm doing research on types of "grading" methods used in other countries. Please tell me where you are, the age groups/grade levels and the type of "reporting" system used.





(Westerville, Ohio -- our parochial school uses plus/check/I and NI on student progress reports for grades K through 8, which would be ages 5 to 14).

What type of student progress reporting method does your COUNTRY use for school-age children?
they send home report cards... in lower rgades they are actual cards... and in older grades they are printed copy paper... they send home 9 weeks grades 4 times a year... and every two nine weeks they send home SEMESTER grades..... (an average of the two 9 week grades, twice a year)





then they also send out MIDTERM grades in the middle of every nine week period to let parents know how things are going... then twice a year.... you have to meet physically with the parent... federally mandated law
Reply:well in Kentucky we use S for Satisfactory and U for Unsatisfactory progress as well as plus and minus for the lower grades, I think they do that in K-1 then they start using the letter grades A,B,C,D or F. My son's in 6th grade. We get report cards every 9 weeks.
