• Grading is a systematic process in education used to summarize a student's achievement.

• Norm-Referenced Grading specifically evaluates a student by comparing their performance against that of their classmates, highlighting their standing relative to the group.

• A core purpose of assigning grades is to effectively communicate a student's overall academic standing and understanding of the subject matter to various stakeholders.

• In Kerala's high school system, students must achieve at least a D+ grade to successfully pass an examination, indicating a specific threshold for basic competence.

• The Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) approach, integral to Kerala's system, ensures a holistic assessment by monitoring both academic (scholastic) and non-academic (co-scholastic) development, promoting active student engagement and providing ongoing feedback for improvement.
