There is an old concept that if you encourage the ones doing the worse job, with 'Well done, keep it up, excellent improvement'. They tend to do better next time. This also catering for the fact why they were at that stage to begin with.
As for the students who have initially done very well to say, 'I don't see any improvement on your work, you need to try harder, not one of your best'. They tend to see this is as a challenge (as you have done) and show themselves up next time around. This also catering for the fact why they were at that stage to begin with.
You will see this also when two boys have been in a fight, and the 'smarter' one of the boys, 'Should have known better!' Whereas the not so smart other boy may not even be suspended. ie He didn't know any better in the first place, poor child!
You seem to have taken this too much to heart. Pick up the challenge and try harder next time, otherwise all those illiterate students will eventually pass you by.
Is it normal for English teacher to be this lazy?

There is also another side to this.

Anyway, that's my view.
