In the Ugandan new curriculum, the grading format is as follows:
- Grades are given on a scale of 1 to 9, with 1 being the lowest and 9 being the highest.
- A grade of 1 is considered a fail, while grades 2 to 9 are considered passing grades.
- Grades are based on a combination of continuous assessment throughout the school year and a final examination at the end of the year.
- The final grade is calculated based on the student's performance in both the continuous assessment and the final examination.
- The grading system is designed to provide a more comprehensive assessment of students' knowledge and skills, rather than relying solely on exam results.
