Grading Changes Clause Samples
The Grading Changes clause establishes the procedures and conditions under which modifications to grading standards, criteria, or systems may be made. Typically, this clause outlines who has the authority to implement such changes, the process for notifying affected parties, and any limitations or requirements for approval. For example, it may specify that changes to grading policies must be communicated to students in advance or require administrative review. The core function of this clause is to ensure transparency and fairness in the management of grading practices, preventing arbitrary or retroactive alterations that could negatively impact stakeholders.
Grading Changes. Where the appropriate base salary of a principal (as specified in clause 5.2.2) changes as a result of a drop in grade of the position and the principal’s existing base salary exceeds the rate for the new grade; and the change in grade is contained in the September Staffing Notice, and is not countered by an increase generated in the 1 March roll, the principal’s salary above the rate for the new grade will be protected for a period of 24 months from the beginning of the school year that follows the September Staffing Notice. After the 24-month period of salary protection, the principal shall be paid no more than the rate for the new grade. Salary protection under this clause shall lapse if the principal accepts an alternative position.
