3. Scroll down to the All Terms section. Specify the weightage of how each term’s grades will contribute to the overall final grade (e.g. you can set a 50:50 weightage if Term 1 and Term 2 contribute equally to the overall final grade):

4. Scroll up and click on the % Aggregator tab. Here, you can specify the score ranges that correspond to each letter grade:


  • Click on the + or x buttons to add or remove a row.

  • Click on the copy button on the right side of the Term name to copy the score ranges from an existing term (E.g. you can copy the score ranges from Term 1 into Term 2).

Once you select an assessment category for a lesson, any percentage grade given to that lesson will count towards the Final Grade based on the weightage specified for that assessment category.


E.g. Exam has a weightage of 70%. If Adam scores 50% on his exam, it will contribute 50% x 70% = 35% towards his Final Grade.
