How to Enable GPA on Report Card?

Step 1 : You need to setup credits/hours to Subjects

Go to Modules > Manage Class Section & Subjects > Select Class > Select Section > Add Subject Credits

 

Step 2 : Add Grading Points

Go to Modules > Assessment & Grading > Grade Setup > Grading Scales > Add/Edit Grading Scale(Grades) > Enable Set Grade Points for GPA Calculation

 

Step 3: Enable GPA on Report Card 

Now on Report Card Format > Edit Report Card > Enabled GPA

 

 You need to select the grading scale which holds the GPA Points.

Now go to Report Card > Search Student >View Report Card

 

 

GPA is calculated with Subject Credits/hours and the grade points which you set on the Grading scale with the overall scores.

Important Formulas: 

  • Earned Grade Points - (Grade on assessment's GPA Score x Subject Credit/Hours)

  • Total Credit/Hours - is the total credits/hours of all the subjects in the report card.

  • GPA Points = Total Credit Points / Total Credit/Hour

Explained with Example:


Step-1: Grading Scale Points.

Here for an instance I'm using the below attached grading scale

Step-2: Enable "Credits/Hours" to Subjects

Here we're using 10 credits each.

Step-3: Capture scores to student

Now let's grade a student, I'm using 2 Assessments common to both subjects as below:

SUBJECT - SPANISH 


In the above attached screenshot student has overall score "60.02/100" for Grading Period - Semester 1 to subject Spanish

SUBJECT - ENGLISH

In the above student has secured "52/100" in Grading Period-Semester 1 to subject English

So the GPA calculated on Report Card is as below.

Step-4: Calculated GPA on Report Card 

The calculated GPA of report card is as below:


Step-5: Deriving Calculation

Grading Scale Used in Report Card Setting

                 
Grading Scale Points

English

  • According to Grading Scale, Subjects which has overall score - 41 to 60 has GPA Point = 4

  • English Subject has Credits - 10

Therefore, English GPA Points = 4*10 = 40

Spanish 

  • According to Grading Scale, Subjects which has overall score - 41 to 60 has GPA Point = 4.

  • Spanish Subject has Credits - 10

Therefore, English GPA Points = 4*10 = 40

Total Credit Hours = (English -10 + Spanish -10) = 20
Total Grading Points =  (English - 40 + Spanish - 40) = 80

GPA = (Total Grading Points / Total Grading Points )
        = (80/20)
        = 4

Same goes to other grading periods and so on..
