GPA (Grade Point Average) is a way of measuring academic achievement in high school. Itâs a numeric value that correlates with a studentâs grades. Each letter grade that a student earns is worth a certain number of grade points depending on how high it is and, in some cases, the level of the class where it was earned. The average of the grade points from all of a studentâs converted letter grades in high school makes up his or her final GPA.
Grade retention or grade repetition is the process of having a student repeat an educational course, usually one previously failed. Students who repeat a course are referred as repeaters. Repeaters can be referred to as having been held back.The primary alternative to grade retention (for those who have failed) is a policy of social promotion, under the ideological principle that staying with their same-age peers is important.Social promotion is the promotion of all students, regardless of achievement, from one class to the next.ost schools refuse to retain a student more than once in a single grade, or more than two or three years across all grades. Students with intellectual disabilities are only retained when parents and school officials agree to do so.
