Examinations

Result processing that follows your board's rules, not a generic average

Unit tests through finals and practicals, marks entry scoped to a teacher's own sections, and a result engine configured by board rule set rather than hardcoded.

What the examination module covers

  • Exam types

    Unit test, mid-term, final, practical and assignment, each schedulable per class and subject.

  • Marks entry

    A teacher enters marks for the sections they teach. The grid is the subject they teach, not the whole class list.

  • Bulk import

    Marks imported from a spreadsheet against an exam, for schools that collect on paper and enter centrally.

  • Grading systems

    Percentage, CGPA, letter grade or division — chosen per organisation, not assumed.

  • Pass rules

    Pass every subject, clear an aggregate, both, or pass a minimum number of subjects — whichever your board actually applies.

  • Absence policy

    Absent in one subject can fail the result, score zero, be excluded from totals, or withhold the result pending review.

Where generic result software breaks

Every board computes a result differently, and the differences are not cosmetic. CBSE reports grades and does not use divisions. ICSE does not use divisions either. A state board may award a division off an aggregate. A university runs semesters with SGPA and CGPA and carries backlogs forward. Software that computes one and relabels it for the others produces marksheets that are subtly wrong in a way nobody notices until a board audit.

So the rules are data. A board rule set carries the result format, the pass rule, the absence policy and the grading scale, and the result engine reads it. AcadiFlow ships presets for CBSE Secondary, ICSE, Maharashtra, West Bengal, NIOS open schooling and a university semester system, plus a generic default — and a school that needs a variation overrides the preset for its own organisation rather than waiting for a release.

The absence policy is the clearest example of why this has to be configurable. Treating one absent paper as a failed result is correct for some boards and wrong for others, where the subject is excluded from the totals or the whole result is withheld pending review. Four different institutions need four different outcomes from the same input, and none of them is the software's opinion to have.

Results carry a status rather than just a number: pass, fail, compartment, absent or withheld. Compartment in particular has no meaning in a percentage — it is a board concept, and a system that cannot express it forces the office back into a spreadsheet at exactly the point the stakes are highest.

Exams & results: common questions

Does AcadiFlow support CBSE, ICSE and state board grading?

Yes. Board rule sets ship as presets for CBSE Secondary, ICSE, Maharashtra State Board, West Bengal Board, NIOS open schooling and a university semester system, alongside a generic default. Each carries its own result format, pass rule, absence policy and grading scale.

Can we change the pass rule for our own school?

Yes. Boards are shared across the platform because CBSE is CBSE everywhere, but rule sets can be overridden per organisation — so a school applying a stricter internal rule than its board's minimum configures that itself.

What happens when a student is absent for one paper?

Whatever your board says should happen. The absence policy is configurable: fail the whole result, score the subject zero, exclude the subject from totals, or withhold the result for review.

Can teachers enter marks for subjects they do not teach?

No. Marks entry is scoped to a teacher's own sections and subjects, which keeps both the workflow and the audit trail clean.

Can marks be imported in bulk?

Yes. Marks can be imported against a scheduled exam from a spreadsheet, for schools that mark on paper and enter centrally rather than subject teacher by subject teacher.
