AbstractThe aim of this research was to examine the attitudes of class and single subject primary school teachers, as well as secondary school teachers, towards the abolition of first term final grades in the Republic of Croatia. The study has shown that this novel practice is not accepted well by teachers. Both class and subject teachers think that end of term final grades serve as useful feedback for pupils and thus positively contribute to pupils’ performance. The participants in the survey believe that the abolition of end of term final grades will also lead to poorer final results achieved by pupils at the end of the school year. The study has also shown that female participants respond to grading with a higher level of stress than their male counterparts.      Key words: grading; lower primary class teachers; pupils; subject teachers; term.---SažetakCilj ovog istraživanja bio je istražiti mišljenja učitelja razredne i predmetne nastave u osnovnoj školi i nastavnika u srednjoj školi, o ukidanju zaključivanja ocjena na polugodištu u Republici Hrvatskoj. Istraživanje je pokazalo kako se ta novost ne prihvaća u zbornicama. Učitelji i nastavnici smatraju kako je zaključna ocjena na polugodištu kvalitetna povratna informacija učeniku koja pridonosi boljim rezultatima učenika. Ispitanici smatraju da će zbog ukidanja zaključivanja ocjena učenici i na kraju godine postizati lošije rezultate. Također se pokazalo da ispitanice stresnije doživljavaju ocjenjivanje od ispitanika.Ključne riječi: nastavnici; ocjenjivanje; polugodište; učenici; učitelji.
