Maybe we should not have grades at all. Kids bullied and built a hierarchy based on grades. They would cry over simple tests or for a single mark since letter grading. They would ask other kids about it relentlessly comparing and noticing even a difference of 0.001%. The teachers relied on those numbers to decide your punishment. The opportunities to participate in school events or represent it were determined by an unrelated grade. The parents relied on grades for parenting. The outsiders taught them how to raise their kid through one of their reports. Guess what? Grades aren't fair in any way. Not even in higher standards. I was in two schools that asked the teachers to modify the student's answer sheet since they had done nothing to give them passing grades (probably illegal?) and for higher standards, schools wouldn't handout a mark that could make them look bad in addition to board exams.
