Final grades provide a single overall measure of a student’s performance in a subject or course. In Toddle, you can configure how these grades are calculated, whether from assignment scores, standards performance, or manually entered grades, and decide which grade scales should be used for each grading period.
Navigate to the final grade setup
To configure final grades for your school, go to: Admin portal → School → Grading setup → Final grade setup.
This page gives you an overview of how final grades are configured across grading periods. Depending on your school’s academic setup, the page displays:
Subject-based setup: Each row represents a subject–grade combination Course-based setup: Each row represents a course For each row and grading period, you can see:
The primary grade scale used (this is the main grade scale that is used in official transcripts) Any additional grade scales mapped The calculation method for each grade scale(score-based or standards-based) Last updated by and Last updated on columns to track changes Use the filters at the top of the page to narrow down the information by Grade levels, Subjects, Course type and Grading periods and the column selector to show/hide fields depending on what you need to review.
Configure the final grade calculation method
Click the pencil icon under the Actions column to open the final grade configuration panel for that subject or course. From here, you can set the calculation method and choose which grade scales should be used for each grading period.
For every subject or course and for each grading period, you can select and map one or more grade scales defined at the school level.
Once the grade scales are selected, you will see the cutoff values, grade labels and descriptions. Here, you can:
Adjust cutoff values for the selected grade scale. If you're using more than one grade scale per grading period, you can mark one as the primary grade scale using the ⭐ icon. The primary grade scale is considered the official or main grade for that grading period. Toddle uses this scale in places where only one final grade can be shown, such as transcripts. Use the ‘Add additional grade scales’ button to add multiple grade scales. Use the copy icon to copy all the configurations of this grading period to other grading periods. After selecting the grade scales for a grading period, the next step is to decide how the final grade should be calculated. Use the ‘Calculate grade from’ dropdown to choose one of the following methods:
Score/letter-based grading: Toddle aggregates the student’s scores from all assignments included in the grading period. If categories are used, category scores are calculated first and combined using the assigned weights. If categories are not used, assignment scores are combined directly. The resulting overall numeric score is then converted into a grade using the selected grade scale. Standards-based grading: Select the standard set you want to use for the final grade. Grades are calculated based on a student’s performance against learning standards. Ratings are first calculated using the mapped grade scale for each standard. Roll-up methods (horizontal and vertical) are applied to arrive at the parent standard rating. Parent standard rating is then converted into a grade using the final grade scale selected for reporting. Manually assign a grade: Toddle does not auto-calculate a final grade. Teachers manually enter the final grade for that grading period based on their judgment. Once you’ve finished configuring the final grade settings, click ‘Apply’ to save your changes.
Bulk apply final grade settings
To configure final grade settings for multiple subjects or courses at once, use the ‘Bulk apply’ button.
On this page, you can:
Use the ‘Add grade scale’ option to select one or more grade scales you want to apply to your courses or subjects. Select the calculation method for the grade scale. Use the ‘Edit’ option to adjust cutoff values for the selected grade scale(s). Mark the grade scale as primary using the ⭐ icon (if you're using more than one scale). Use the ‘Add additional grade scales’ button to add multiple grade scales. Use the copy icon to copy all the configurations of this grading period to other grading periods. Once your configuration is ready, click Select courses/subjects to choose where these configurations should be applied.
In the selection modal:
Use checkboxes to choose the courses or subjects where you want to apply this configuration. Use the filters at the top to quickly narrow down the list. Click Select courses/subjects to confirm your selection.
After returning to the main page, the selected courses/subjects appear under Apply to courses/subjects. From here, you can add more subjects/courses or remove the selected ones using the bin icon.
Once done, click Apply to X courses/subjects to bulk-apply the setup.
Note: Bulk apply only impacts grading periods that you have configured on the bulk apply page. Grading periods without any configuration will remain unchanged.
