The 2023 National Senior Certificate examination results will be released today (Thursday).
Umalusi, the quality assurance body, officially approved the release of the Department of Basic Education (DBE) November 2023 NSC exam results.
This announcement follows the completion of Umalusi’s quality assurance processes for various qualifications, including matric exams, National Certificate (Vocational) NCV qualifications, NATED programmes, and General Education and Training Certificate (GETC): Adult Basic Education and Training (ABET).
The Department of Basic Education administered the 2023 NSC exams to 898 520 (717, 377 full-time and 181 143 part-time) candidates.
Umalusi’s CEO Mafu Rakometsi said that the council has been hard at work since the conclusion of the matric exams, saying that after the conclusion of marking, marks were submitted to Umalusi for standardisation processes.
Rakometsi was speaking at the State of Readiness media briefing.
He highlighted potential issues such as load shedding, community protests, and cheating that could negatively impact exam integrity.
He said they express gratitude to the South African public for not using the NSC matric exams as leverage for protests, addressing concerns about hindrances affecting learners’ performance.
Rakometsi said Umalusi is confident that no examination papers were leaked during the 2023 NSC exams.
However, Rakometsi expressed concerns about printing errors, poor print quality, and instances of cheating and group copying.
Professor Yunus Ballim, chairperson of the Umalusi Council, congratulated all the assessment bodies for conducting the 2023 end-of-year exams.
“Umalusi congratulates all the assessment bodies for successfully conducting and managing the 2023 end-of-year examinations. Umalusi congratulates all the learners who have succeeded in the 2023 examinations. To those learners who have not succeeded, there is another chance for you in this year’s examinations. So please do not give up – work hard and you will do better this year,” he said.
