2023 systemic test results show improvement across all school phases
7 February 2024
The results of our annual systemic tests for 2023 are now available, which show an improvement in Mathematics and Language scores across all school phases in the Western Cape.
Systemic Testing
We are the only province to conduct systemic testing in Mathematics and Language, which give us a consistent record of improvements and declines in our learners’ skills and allow us to determine the success of any changes we make to the system.
These are conducted each year in Grades 3, 6 and 9, and are internationally benchmarked and administered, marked, and moderated externally to ensure objectivity and to provide a credible and relevant benchmark for evaluation.
