"CF"

English to Portuguese Other Certificates, Diplomas, Licenses, CVs
Hello everyone,

I am translating a Qualifications Certificate from Portuguese (Portugal) into English. In the document where the student grades and subjects are listed there is a column with the initials "CF".
Underneath the "CF" column there are letters like "G", "E" and "T". It is a secondary school certificate.

Any idea what this could stand for?

Thank you in advance.

A classificação final de curso é o resultado da aplicação da seguinte fórmula:
CF = 9MCD + 1PAT
10
em que:
CF = classificação final do curso (com arredondamento às unidades);
MCD = média aritmética simples, com arredondamento às unidades, da classificação final obtida
pelo aluno em todas as disciplinas, projecto tecnológico e estágio do respectivo curso, com
excepção da disciplina de Educação Moral e Religiosa;
PAT = classificação obtida na prova de aptidão tecnológica.

The attendance, both in theoretical and practical classes, weights in the final grade, with the following criteria:

Note to the Asker question: I have no idea at this point Silvia, give me a couple of hours to research. I'll try to get back to this.

Silvia, perhaps it can be the following:

G: Geral
E: Específica
T: Tecnológica

T stands for Técnica, and not Tecnológica

Note from asker:
Hi Susana, thank you. I also thought about that but if it is "final grade" what would the letters "G", "E" and "T" mean in that case? These appear in the "CF" column. Thank you so much for your time.

Just a guess

CF could be "Componente de Formacao" (sorry, no cedilla on the keyboard I am using) which fits in well with the meanings of G, E and T as given.
