Can a teacher force you to do something?

Can a teacher fail me for not doing an assignment?

Teachers truly do not give grades. Students earn grades. You can’t. You have to put in the work. Passing means doing 50\%. That’s the bare minimum to show that you have learned something. At university level, they can raise the treshold a bit; I’ve taken tests in which the bare minimum was 63\% or 70\%. So with this knowledge, you have it easy.
