What is different here
PLE aggregates and divisions
Every primary marksheet and report card prints D1 to F9 per subject, the aggregate of the four PLE subjects and the division, for each exam and for the term. Positions follow the aggregate.
The new lower secondary curriculum
S1 to S4 are graded A to E, Exceptional to Elementary. Positions are off by default, because UNEB no longer ranks O-level.
UACE points
S5 and S6 add up the best three principal subjects with General Paper and a subsidiary, out of 20.
LIN and UNEB index numbers
Each learner keeps the Learner Identification Number from EMIS, and a UNEB index number once registered.
Beginning, mid and end of term
BOT, MOT and EOT exams sit side by side on one report card, each with its own aggregate.
