ISLAMABAD: The Federal Board of Intermediate & Secondary Education (FBISE)<\/a> in Islamabad has taken a significant step forward by approving a new grading system and pass percentage policy.<\/p>\n

Under this system, students will receive grades instead of numerical marks<\/a>, and the traditional first, second, and third-position rankings will be abolished.<\/p>\n

While FBISE has adopted this new policy, the education boards<\/a> of Sindh, Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and Balochistan have yet to follow suit.<\/p>\n

However, Sindh Universities & Boards Secretary Abbas Baloch has confirmed that Sindh is in the process of approving the new grading policy, with a formal notification expected to be issued soon.<\/p>\n

New Grading System Breakdown<\/a><\/h2>\n

According to the Inter Boards Committee of Chairmen, the new grading policy will categorize student performance into 10 distinct grades.<\/p>\n

The highest achievement, A++ (Exceptional), will be awarded to students scoring 95% or above. The excellent category is further divided into two sub-groups: A+ (Excellent) for scores between 90-94% and A (Excellent) for scores between 85-89%.<\/p>\n

Students demonstrating strong performance will receive B++ (Very Good) for scores between 80-84%, B+ (Good) for scores between 75-79%, and B (Fairly Good) for scores between 70-74%.<\/p>\n

Average performers will be categorized as C (Above Average) with scores between 60-69%, D (Average) with scores between 50-59%, and E (Below Average) with scores between 40-49%.<\/p>\n

Those scoring below 40% will receive an F (Unsatisfactory) grade. This tiered system aims to provide a more nuanced assessment of student achievement.<\/p>\n

The new policy will apply to all education boards in Sindh, which will conduct class IX and XI exams according to the new grading system starting in 2025.<\/p>\n

Ziauddin University Examination Board Executive Director Dr. Nasir Ansar has also confirmed that they are fully prepared to implement the new grading policy and conduct exams under it from 2025.<\/p>\n

This change aims to standardize and improve the evaluation process across all examination boards in Pakistan, ensuring a more consistent and transparent grading system for students.<\/p>\n

The minimum pass percentage has been set at 40%, which will encourage students to focus more on their studies and achieve a better understanding of their subjects.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
