I thought it would be a good time to turn over a new leaf...

So you skip out on practical and written exams and pretend to be reformed during the rest of the day so I won't notice,

You should stop taking the bait so easily.

Before you answer,

I'll tell you my reasoning.

The ranking system was never revealed to the children.

You didn't show any signs of doubt when I used the word "rank" just now.

In fact, you even said the highest rank that only those in the know would've heard of...

...From the looks of things, you must know that if you reach C-rank or higher, you'll have a tracking device attached to your body, right?

and escape when the opportunity arises.

Is that your plan?
