The Sindh government has announced a major overhaul of the grading system for matriculation and intermediate students, shifting from the traditional marks-based approach to a comprehensive grades-based system. The new policy, developed by the Inter-Board Coordination Committee (IBCC), will be implemented in 2025 and aims to provide a more nuanced assessment of student performance.
Under this system, students will be evaluated using grades instead of numerical marks, with the highest category being ‘Exceptional’ for scores of 95% and above, and ‘Unsatisfactory’ for those scoring 40% or below. The grading structure eliminates the concept of first, second, and third positions, redirecting attention toward a broader evaluation of abilities.
The detailed grading scale is as follows:
The transition will also see a change in terminology, as the traditional “F” for “Fail” will be replaced with “U” for “Unsatisfactory.”
This reform comes after a national decision in 2022 by educational board chairmen to adopt a 10-point grading system across the country. The new system also raises the minimum passing marks from 33 to 40.
Sindh is the first province to implement these changes.
