Assessments in Grades 4 to 9

Remember that you have until 28 February of the following academic year to capture all marks for learners in Grades R to 9.

Registering with the Department of Basic Education
In South Africa, learners of compulsory school-going age (Grades 1 to 9 OR 7 to 15 years of age) must be registered for homeschooling. Legislation changes from time to time and Grade R may become compulsory. Kindly liaise with your Provincial Department of Education around Grade R registration.  Click here to learn more about registering your learner with the DBE.

Assesserings in graad 4 tot 9
Toetse en eksamens moet van graad 4 tot 12 voltooi word, aangesien dit 'n kritiese deel van enige leerder se jaarlikse assessering vorm. Klik hier om meer te lees oor toetse en eksamens in graad 4 tot 9. As die ouer/voog kan jy of 'n tutor jou leerder se vordering assesseer. Onthou dat jy tot 28 Februarie van die volgende akademiese jaar het om alle punte in te lees vir leerders in graad R tot 9. Alhoewel dit nie nodig is om enige assesserings by Impaq in te dien nie, is dit belangrik dat jy 'n portefeulje van jou leerder se werk hou vir ten minste 3 jaar. Is jy nuut by Impaq?
