Subject: Education Ministry seeks to grade secondary school students on
behavior
From Or Kashti's article in today's Ha'aretz -
Secondary school students should be graded on their behavior, the Education
Ministry's internal committee recommended this weekend.
It had deliberated the matter for several weeks, ultimately deciding that
the behavior factor should comprise 15 to 20 percent of the final grade
appearing on students' annual report cards and matriculation certificates.
The recommendations obtained by Ha'aretz call for teachers to give students
in grades 7 through 11 two grades for all subjects - one for academic
achievement, and another for behavior. The final report card will have a
final grade for behavior, calculated as the average of the behavioral grades
for each subject, as well as a grade for the student's behavior outside the
classroom.
