摘要

The educational process is necessary in producing a generation capable of steering the nation toward progress in all spheres of life. This study investigates the classification of student grades using machine learning techniques. Experiments were conducted using a dataset of 504 samples from higher secondary schools of Jammu District, applying two transfer learning models: K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM). Among these models, SVM emerged as the best performer. However, the ensemble model (SVM + KNN) appeared to generalize effectively on the dataset, with accuracy rates of 90.10%. Thus, it can be concluded that deeper and more optimized architectures are better suited for the task of students’ grade classification. The study shows that machine learning can automate grade classification, enabling early performance prediction that helps teachers provide timely support to struggling students, boosting success rates, identifying improvement areas, and transforming teaching and learning.
