Pupils/Students need to learn from the results of the assessment so they know what to improve further, and then they can plan strategically how they can address any learning deficiency.

F. Levels of ProficiencyThe performance of pupils shall be described in the report card, based on the following levels of proficiency:1. Beginning (B)- The pupil at this level struggles with his understanding; prerequisite and fundamental knowledge and skills have not been acquired or developed adequately to aid understanding. 2. Developing (D)- The pupil at this level possesses the minimum knowledge and skills and core understanding, but needs help throughout the performance of authentic tasks.

3. Approaching Proficiency (AP) - The pupil at this level has developed the fundamental knowledge and skills and core understandings and with little guidance from teacher/peers can transfer these understandings through authentic performance tasks. 4. Proficient (P) The pupil at this level has developed the fundamental knowledge and skills and core understanding and can transfer them independently through authentic performance task.

5. Advanced(A)-The pupil at this level exceeds the core requirements in terms of knowledge, skills and understandings, and can transfer them automatically and flexibly through authentic performance tasks.

Level of ProficiencyEquivalent Numerical ValueBeginning74% and belowDeveloping75-79%Approaching Proficiency80-84%Proficient85-89%Advanced90% and above

G. Promotion and RetentionPromotion and retention of pupils shall be by subject. Pupils whose proficiency level is Beginning(B) at the end of the quarter or grading period shall be required to undergo remediation after class hours so that they can immediately catch up as they move to the next grading period.
