The Ukrainian system for middle and high school provides grades that lie within 1 and 12. The lowest passing grade is 4. Additionally, the grades are divided into four levels: initial (1–3), sufficient (4–6), average (7–9) and high (10–12).{{Cite web |title=Proiekt nakazu MON - systema otsiniuvannia |url=https://mon.gov.ua/storage/app/media/regulatorna_dijalnist/2020/09/14/Systema%20otsinyuvannya/Proyekt%20nakazu%20MON%20Systema%20otsinyuvannya.pdf |access-date=September 11, 2024 |website=mon.gov.ua}}
12 being an equivalent of exceptional, is always given only for significant achievements or exceptionally creative work, hence 11 is the grade that would be called the highest grade in many other countries, i.e. "A" in the United States, while 12 would be "A+".
