• Inclusive Basket of Criteria provides a more comprehensive account of the performance at provincial and district levels, since this score is a multi-indicator approach – (critical national indicators). • This approach will re-direct the focus from the overall pass percentage to six other important criteria. • This approach will ensure that schools and districts now focus on improving their performance in Mathematics, Physical Sciences, Bachelor passes, distinctions, Mathematics participation rate and the throughput rate. 71
School Based Assessment
Current Status (a) Improvements in the implementation of School based assessment noted in 2016 especially at the Grade 12 level (b) Grade 10 and 11 still lagging behind in quality and standard. (c) In 2016 the focus was on the following: • • • Mediating the 2015 NSC Exam and SBA Comparative Analysis Finalisation of the national SBA Policy An audit if the SBA systems in all provinces Moderation of SBA tasks and Learner Evidence Development of a Guideline for the Conduct of Internal Examinations. 73 Moderation of Practical Assessment Tasks and Oral
Key Challenges in 2016 and Proposed Interventions in 2017 Challenge Proposed intervention Poor quality of some SBA tasks, or tasks of low cognitive level • Training of subject advisors on development of assessment tasks • Training of provincial chief markers on setting of question papers (Prep exams) • Provision of SBA exemplars Over-dependence on past question papers or provincially/district based tasks. Variations in moderation systems at school, district, provincial and national levels. • Report on audit of SBA systems to shared with PEDs. • Mediate the Policy on quality assurance of SBA Assessment systems to support • Conduct audit of PAT moderation system. the implementation of PATs at • Draft Guidelines for the moderation of PATs provincial and district levels • Monitor and moderate the implementation of PATs Computation and Capturing of SBA marks • • Audit of PEDS systems relating to computing and capturing SBA marks Evaluation of mark sheets/tools utilised Streamlining of processes across PEDs via circular/directives/norms 74 Ensuring that SASAMS is CAPS compliant

Comparative Analysis between SBA and Examination Marks: 2015 and 2016 • The quality of internal assessment at schools is improving • There has been a national decline of 0. 4% (345 moderation records) of rejected marks from 2015 to 2016 • In the category of >15 there has also been an improvement as the data shows a decline of 5. 9% (4 757 moderation records) nationally
Conclusion
Conclusion (a) Despite the criticisms against the NSC examinations, it remains a reliable indicator of performance of the system. (b) There is a gradual increase in the cognitive demand of question papers and through the benchmarking process, our question papers are becoming internationally comparable. (c) Closer working relationship with State Security Agencies to improve the security of the examination system. (d) Exploring various options to improve the quality of marking, including E-marking. 79
