B.C.’s Descriptive Grading on Report Cards Has Parents Yearning for the ABCs
TORONTO—The vast majority of parents in Canada easily understand letter grades on report cards but are confused by the new “descriptive” grading recently adopted in British Columbia, finds a new study published today by the Fraser Institute, an independent, non-partisan Canadian public policy think-tank.
“Parents are clearly confused by this new grading system, which includes vague terms open to interpretation,” said Paige MacPherson, associate director of education policy at the Fraser Institute and author of B.C.’s Descriptive Grading on Report Cards Has Parents Yearning for the ABCs.
