The promotion result criteria list shows the different criteria that will be checked when evaluating a promotion result.

Contents

Criteria list

  • Subjects shows the different subjects that will be checked agains the listed criterion.
  • Criterion shows the condition that will be used to evaluate the pupil's performance.
  • Actions shows the two differe actions (edit or delete) that can be performed on the criterion.

Deleting criteria

Note that when deleting a criterion from the list, no confirmation will be asked for.

Adding new criteria

Use the Add a new criterion link at the top of the table.

Ordering of the criteria

Although it might seem sensible to be able to sort this list into an order, it should be pointed out that because all the criteria must be evaluated in order for the promotion result to be applied, it doesn't make a difference in which order they are applied. A pupil who might fail on multiple criteria will still fail, regardless of which criterion is failed "first".

Examples
