I saw firsthand knowledge of something like this. My sister went to my same grade school for awhile. When I was there, there was generally 3 marks-exceptional, satisfactory, and unsatisfactory. When my sister went there there were still 3, but they had changed to exceptional, satisfactory, and chooses not to perform up to ability.
Children are too coddled today. It's a fact that some are smarter, some more athletic, some more charismatic, etc. It seems instead of finding a place for the average or below average students, they want to make everyone the same, which comes as a big shock when these people can't compete because they aren't used to dealing with situations where they are bettered.
