All compilation errors are unexpected.

Your basic problem is here - the dimensions of automatic arrays in C++ must
be constants known at compile time. One way of fixing your code would be to
declare your dimension sizes as:

const int noOfGrades=3;
const int noOfStudents=5;

This will fix some, but not all. problems in your code. Patch these fixes
in, try to fix the remaining problems and if you can't post here again. But
remember, we don't do homework for you.
