1. This circular must be read in conjunction with Circular 25/2004 and Government Gazette 22615 of 27 August 2001  [size: 1 066 KB]  (source: http://www.info.gov.za/gazette/notices/2001/22615.pdf), in which details of Question Paper 3 for first (primary) languages are provided. Paper 3 is written only by part-time candidates.
2. During the past few years, chief examiners of Paper 3 in the first (primary) languages have complained that many part-time candidates are not being prepared for the 4th prescribed work which is examined in that paper. This has resulted in candidates losing a considerable number of marks.
3. Centre managers must ensure that the prescribed work for this Senior Certificate examination (see attached list of prescribed works) is properly covered during the learning programme.
4. Further information in this regard may be obtained from the following chief curriculum advisers:
