an academic classification in British education awarded to graduates who achieve a level of academic performance below that of a first class honours degree
What is a "second class honours degree"?
A second class honours degree is a classification awarded to students who perform well academically, typically during their undergraduate studies. It is divided into two levels: second class upper and second class lower. A second class upper, often called a 2:1, indicates a high level of achievement, usually above the average but below the highest honors. A second class lower, often called a 2:2, represents a good level of achievement, though it is typically lower than the upper classification. This classification is commonly used in countries like the UK and is often considered important for employment or further study opportunities.
