For South African schools, from CAPS to matric
South African teachers plan to CAPS, mark a lot of school-based assessment and prepare learners for matric. SparkMentis drafts the plans, helps with the marking and gives learners a tutor for the work in between.
The system schools work in
- The CAPS curriculum from the Department of Basic Education.
- The National Senior Certificate (matric) at the end of Grade 12, with IEB exams in many independent schools.
- School-based assessment counts toward final results.
