1. The National Senior Certificate (NSC) examination was administered for the first time according to the Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statements (CAPS) in 2014.
2. Please take note that the examination guidelines in two subjects, namely Dance Studies and Business Studies, have been amended in order to give more clarity and assist teachers in preparing candidates for the examinations. The reports that emanated from the marking of the November 2014 examinations indicated that there were several omissions in the 2014 examination guidelines, necessitating the amendments.
3. The amended examination guidelines for Dance Studies and Business Studies are attached to this minute. The 2015 examination guidelines in these subjects will replace the 2014 guidelines.
4. The examination guidelines will also be made available on the Western Cape Education Department (WCED) website at: http://wcedonline.pgwc.gov.za
5. Principals are kindly requested to bring this information to the attention of all Grade 12 Dance Studies and Business Studies teachers and candidates.
