Unlike ''The Sims 2'', there aren't positive grades, such as A+, B+ or C+. In order for a child or teen sims to improve their grades, they'll have to go to school with a positive [[emotion]] ([[Focused (emotion)|Focused]] is suggested as it says so in the school panel), completing their [[homework]], doing extra credit work, working hard at class, and get extra performance boost from [[chance card]]s that randomly pop up while the Sim is still at school. These chance cards may give a large performance boost, a medium performance boost, a small performance boost, and the same goes for performance losses.
School starts at 8:00 am and ends at 3:00 pm, and if the Sim doesn't show up for school as expected, at around 9:00 am, their principal will call the Sim who is missing school and inform them that if they keep missing school, their grades will suffer. Even though the Sim is considered missing school by then, they can still be sent to school by selecting the Sim, clicking on them, and selecting "Go To School" (for kids) or "Go To High School" (for teens).
While the child/teen is at school, their options are, Normal (Default, neutral state), Slack Off (Leads to performance loss, fun gain, chance for a [[happy]] [[List of Moodlets (The Sims 4)|moodlet]] after school), Make Friends (Social gain, random notifications will appear saying the Sim met someone at school and no matter the Sim's age, they'll gain both teen and child friends that can later on be interacted with outside school if seen), Study hard (Performance need, lowers fun need, chance for a [[tense]] moodlet after school).
Also, while at school, Sims cannot get mortified, hysterical, be taken away, or starved to death. The needs that the Sim gains while at school are, social, fun (if slacking off), hunger, and bladder.
The known schools available are the Landgraab Elementary and Buckingham High.
There are no disadvantages when a teen or a child has the lowest grade possible, except from an [[embarrassed]] moodlet.
If a child with the socially gifted [[Trait (The Sims 4)|trait]], or a teen reach enough [[mischief]] skill, they can have a partner in crime, and plan with them to do mischievous things at school such as throwing geeks at the lockers, flooding the school, fill the class with plastic watercups, etc. If the prank succeeds, the Sim will get a +2 [[confident]] moodlet, but if it fails, they'll get a +2 embarrassed moodlet and performance loss.
To reach grade B they'll need to get one skill at level 2 at one skill and to reach grade A the Sim must get level 4 at one skill (Level 3 for teenagers).
While a child is doing homework, a parent or older Sim, even a teen, can help them with their homework, to give the child a +2 focused boost, and finish homework earlier, granding the Sim that helped the child a +1 confident moodlet. The homework will be at the child's inventory and can be ordered from the bookshelf. When the child ages to teen, the grade school homework will be replaced with High School homework in their inventory and as before, can be purchased from the bookshelf. A child or teen with grade B and up has a new interaction on the homework after finishing homework called "Do Extra Credit Work", which grands more performance gain from just doing homework. Children also benefit from having higher Skill levels when it comes to homework. Each Skill that they get to level 10 will increase the rate homework is done by 70%. When all 4 available child skills (Mental, Social, Motor and Creativity) are maxed, the child will finish their homework x8 times faster. And if they have a +2 focused moodlet and a parent helping them, they'll finish it x10 times faster.
Once Sims age up to young adult. Having high grades will allow Sims to start their career level ahead. Level 2 for grade B and level 3 for grade A.
