Can a School predetermine a final grade for a student in the credit recovery program?
No. The final grade a student receives in the Credit Recovery Program is individually determined based upon achieved expectations in accordance with The Ontario Curriculum Grades 9 to12: Program Planning and Assessment. Thirty per cent (30%) of the grade will be based on a final evaluation in the form of an Examination, performance essay, and/or other method of evaluation suitable to the course content and administered towards the end of the course Seventy percent (70%) of the grade will be determined by one of the following: (A) Solely upon the student’s performance in the Credit Recovery Program. (B) The merging of previous evaluation provided by the Subject teacher with marks determined through evaluations conducted during the Credit Recovery Program. Where the Principal has determined that prior learning will be recognized toward credit recovery such achievement may also be merged with marks earned through credit recovery.
