16. Progression from Standard Grade to Higher
The progression route to Higher for most school candidates is still largely through
Standard Grade. It is generally accepted that a pass at Credit level in Standard Grade
should provide a sound basis for a candidate sitting Higher in that subject in the
following year, while a General level pass would be more likely to require an additional
year’s study to secure a pass at Higher
Current predictors
Grade 1 at Standard Grade 95% achieved a Higher pass
Grade 2 at Standard Grade 67% achieved a Higher pass
