Starting in 2023, 8 schools will participate in a national experiment for two years, during which they will not grade the students. The schools will be monitored to understand if this measure will lead to less-stressed and happier kids. Instead of grades, the students will receive detailed feedback on how they can improve.
22 other schools are testing another measure, the introduction of a grade for work effort. The grade will be given on the basis if the student can work independently and if they take initiative and responsibility in groups.
See the map of the chosen schools for the two experiments here.
