I like the sound of this. “The trend has scrambled the very meaning of grades themselves” — good. Grades build in a competitiveness that doesn’t need to exist, based on a biased scale. It’s unfortunate that that competition is moving into other realms, but if we can strip grades of their meaning (starting at a younger age), maybe that’s a good first step toward a world where humans aren’t constantly measured against one another?
