- Countries vary in the way they use marks, but they all tend to reward the mastery of skills and attitudes that promote learning.
- Teachers tend to give girls and socio-economically advantaged students better school marks, even if they don’t have better performance and attitudes than boys and socio-economically disadvantaged students.
- It seems that marks not only measure students’ progress in school, they also indicate the skills, behaviours, habits and attitudes that are valued in school.
