Selected

assessment of performance levels

More like gauging, rating, evalutaion or assessment, rather than a heartfelt appreciation of Swiss school pupils' performance, so as to grade such.

Cognate with the French of 'prestations' is *my* usual idea of comparing the Swiss-German and other German 'joker' or weasel-word of Leistungen which is also translatable as welfare benefits, payments or *achievements*.
Example sentence:

IATE: COM fr appréciation COM estimation COM évaluation COM connaissance approchée COM en assessment

CH: The findings also suggest that more advantaged school attendance areas achieved higher average *performance levels* in the early stages of primary education despite controlling for student socioeconomic backgrounds.

Thanks, but performance levels can still reflect subjective motivation to achieve.
neutral SafeTex : There are 6 levels of performance but it is not the levels that are being assessed but the person

Performance levels can still reflect subjective achievement pointers.
