Do students need to maintain a certain grade point?

The minimum standard in Canadian schools is 50% – 60%.  Anything less is considered a failing grade. Students who maintain a grade point of over 50% in most classes will be able to remain in the programme.  However, if the student wants to return for another year, some schools (especially private schools), may require a grade point of 60% or higher in order to consider the student for re-enrolment.
