How to use the calculator

  1. Enter classes already held and absences for the same subject or class group.
  2. Set your own target. Add remaining classes and planned absences to calculate the end of term.

Calculation details

Formula and calculation method

For C classes held, P presences, R remaining classes and target fraction t: minimum future presences = max(0, ceil[t(C+R)−P]). Allowed absences = R − minimum; if minimum > R, the target is unattainable. Consecutive absences while keeping the target: floor(P/t−C), only when the target is already met.

Worked example

80 presences out of 100 classes give 80%. With 20 classes remaining, an 80% target requires 16 more presences, allowing at most 4 absences out of those 20.

Limitations

  • This is a mathematical plan. The default 50% does not establish eligibility for classification. Attendance alone does not determine every assessment requirement; current rules, evidence for grading and school policies matter.
  • Handle lateness, excused absences and excluded classes according to school records. Targets are compared before display rounding.
