3. Grade 10 and 11 requirements
Candidates must have complied with the internal assessment requirements for Grades 10 and 11 in order
to register for the Grade 12 assessment programme and must be able to submit proof to this effect.
4. Repeat Candidates
A candidate who did not comply with all the requirements for the NSC as full-time candidate and enters
for a subsequent examination other than a supplementary examination in order to fulfil the outstanding
requirements will for all purposes be regarded as a repeat candidate.
A repeat candidate may enter for any number of subjects that were resulted in a previous exam cycle.
The candidate will have the option of re-doing the SBA of the subject(s), or to retain the previous SBA
mark, SBAs from previous years are valid for 5 years. The candidate’s decision must be clearly
indicated on the registration form.
A repeat candidate who has already obtained the NSC may enter for a maximum of two (2) subjects not
previously offered. In this case the candidate must comply with all the internal assessment
requirements for the subject(s) in Grades 10 and 11.
Candidates who repeat one or more subjects will be allowed to combine their results based on the
current National Senior Certificate requirements to obtain a National Senior Certificate, if the combined
results change the status of the certificate, for example, from Diploma to Bachelors, from fail to Higher
Certificate etc.
