How is the year mark for Grade 7 to 9 Technology calulated?

For Term 4, only the PAT assessment will contribute towards the term mark. The final exam does not contribute towards the Term 4 mark. The final examination contributes 40% of the year mark, and Term 1-4 contributes a total of 60%, where each term contributes 10%, and each PAT contributes 5%.
