Israeli School Gradebook — 1–100 Percentage Scale with Bagrut Matriculation Eligibility Checker
Israel's Bagrut (Matriculation Certificate) is determined by a combination of internal school assessments and external Ministry of Education examinations across multiple year-levels. Students must meet six distinct eligibility criteria — including a minimum average, mandatory subject coverage, minimum Hebrew/Arabic unit count, and civic studies — to earn the Teudat Bagrut. OpenEduCat tracks all six criteria simultaneously, flags at-risk students, and generates the bilingual Teudat Bagrut in Hebrew and English.
Grading Scales
Pre-configured grade bands shipped with the Israel module. No manual setup required.
| Grade | Points / Range | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 90–100 — Metzuyan (Excellent) | 90–100 | Highest performance category. Recorded as "Metzuyan" on the Teudat Bagrut. Often required for competitive university programmes (medicine, law, computer science at top universities). |
| 80–89 — Tov Meod (Very Good) | 80–89 | Very good performance. Strong Bagrut result. Counted fully in the 5-unit and 4-unit subject calculations for university admission. |
| 70–79 — Tov (Good) | 70–79 | Good performance. Passes all Bagrut criteria. Above the minimum average threshold for Teudat Bagrut eligibility. |
| 56–69 — Measpik (Satisfactory) | 56–69 | Satisfactory — minimum passing grade for Bagrut. The Bagrut average must be ≥56 across all subjects. A score of exactly 56 meets the minimum threshold. |
| Below 56 — Lo Measpik (Insufficient) | <56 | Insufficient. Subject failed. Does not count toward Bagrut unit requirements. Retake required for subjects needed for Teudat Bagrut eligibility. |
What the Israel Module Does
Country-specific features that go beyond the core gradebook engine.
Six-Criteria Bagrut Eligibility Checker
The Teudat Bagrut requires meeting all six Ministry criteria simultaneously: (1) average ≥56, (2) minimum 21 total study units, (3) Hebrew/Arabic Language at ≥3 units, (4) English at ≥3 units, (5) Maths at ≥3 units, (6) Civic Studies completion. OpenEduCat evaluates all six criteria in real-time as grades are entered.
Unit-Level Tracking (il_bagrut_units)
Each Bagrut subject is studied at 3, 4, or 5 units of depth. The unit level (stored as `il_bagrut_units`) affects which university programmes the student qualifies for — 5 units in Maths opens engineering; 5 units in English satisfies many university language requirements. The system tracks unit level per subject and uses it in eligibility calculations.
Internal vs External Assessment Split
Bagrut grades combine school-based internal assessment (typically 30–40%) with external Ministry examinations (60–70%). Both components are stored separately in the gradebook with the exact weighting per subject, and the combined Bagrut grade is computed accordingly.
Teudat Bagrut Certificate Generation
The Teudat Bagrut is the official matriculation certificate issued by the Ministry of Education. OpenEduCat generates the certificate document in Hebrew with English translation columns, showing all subjects, unit levels, and final grades in the official format.
Hebrew and Arabic Interface Support
Israel has both Hebrew-medium and Arabic-medium school sectors. OpenEduCat supports right-to-left Hebrew and Arabic interfaces for data entry and generates school documents with the correct language, script, and directionality for each sector.
Re-Attempt Policy
Bagrut Retake Policy — Behina Michzeket
Students who fail a Bagrut subject (below 56) or wish to improve may retake the external examination (Behina Michzeket) in the next available sitting (typically twice per year: winter and summer). The higher result is used for the Teudat Bagrut average calculation. OpenEduCat stores all sittings and automatically uses the best result for eligibility calculation.
How re-attempts affect the transcript
- The active grade (counted in GPA) is marked with an asterisk (*)
- Superseded or excluded grades are annotated with their status code
- All attempts appear on the transcript for full academic transparency
- Cleared, condoned, compensated, and exempted backlogs do not block graduation
