Add Assignment types and weight to default gradebook settings
Our school requires all of our high school classes to have the grade calculation as Summative 80% and Formative 20% and middle school as 70/30. Not all teachers set up their gradebooks as required. It would save a lot of time spent auditing gradebooks if in the Grades>Grading setup>Gradebook settings>Default gradebook settings there was the option to add in assignment types and weight as a default and lock it so teachers can't change it.

Hey Folks -
Just wanted to log a quick note and say that this is something we're looking into implementing. We're going to try to squeeze it in before the beginning of the next school. Like the other default gradebook settings, we'd likely implement an option for admin to either lock teachers out of updating this themselves, or allow teachers to override the default values should they choose.
This is not a promise, but know that this is something that we think would save teachers a good bit of time, and likely save admin a couple of headaches, especially at the beginning of a school year.

As long as there is a way to override it if you have any courses that have grading exceptions, it is a great idea!
