Hi, If someone fails a test in a given subject at school, says, maths, is it OK then to say that he/she won't get a credit for this subject, meaning that he/she will fail and won't get to another grade or something. No. There are usually many tests while you are studying a subject.

No. There are usually many tests while you are studying a subject. Usually, there are also home assignments and a final exam. All of these are considered when the teacher decides if you have passed or failed. If you pass, you get a credit.
