TESTING
A pretest is usually taken within the first two days of resumption of each term. All students are tested each term in order to help the school Administration evaluate student progress. The test results are made available to the parents at the end of each term. Learners in the foundations and preschool departments do not take formal tests but are assessed on a continuous basis. Some subjects in the Elementary and Secondary school sections are also assessed on a continuous basis.
HOMEWORK
Each teacher assigns homework as he or she considers necessary to reinforce the daily work. Learners are to use the time after school to complete the assignments and be prepared for the next day’s classes.
GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS
Students are expected to work toward academic excellence. Any student admitted into the regular academic program of GB should be able to maintain al least a “C” average on all subjects.
Note: Some students may find it difficult to maintain the academic excellence required by the School. Such students will be encouraged to spend extra time with qualified teachers or tutors to enable them to keep pace with their classmates. If a student gets less than a C average in Math or English language, that student will be mandated to stay for an extra week at the end of each term to cover up work and meet the minimum academic standard for these subjects.
