1. Introduction The National Curriculum Statement, Grades R-12 was approved as National Policy and published in
the Government Gazette 34600, Notices 722 and 723 of 12 September 2011.
The National Curriculum Statement, Grades R-12 comprises:
The Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statements for all approved subjects for Grades R-12;
The National Policy Pertaining to the Programme and Promotion Requirements of the National
Curriculum Statement Grades R-12; and
The National Protocol for Assessment.
The Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement (CAPS) is a single, comprehensive, and concise
document developed for all subjects listed in the National Curriculum Statement Grades R-12 and is
arranged into Four Sections.
The National State of Disaster due to Covid and the ensuing lockdown has created a unique situation
which has disrupted the school calendar thus impacting on the implementation of the Curriculum and
Assessment Policy Statement (CAPS) for the 2020 academic year. To mitigate the impact of the
Covid lockdown, the Department of Basic Education (DBE) working in collaboration Provincial
Education Departments (PEDs), has put together a framework for curriculum recovery plans after the
extended lockdown. The framework, which was consulted with key stakeholders in the sector,
proposes a revised school calendar and curriculum reorganization and trimming, as some of the
strategies to create opportunities for curriculum recovery.
In the context of the framework for the school curriculum recovery plan whose overarching aim is to
ensure that the critical skills, knowledge, values and attitudes outlined in the CAPS are covered over
a reduced time period, the purpose of curriculum reorganisation and trimming is to:
Reduce the envisaged curriculum to manageable core content including skills, knowledge,
attitudes and values so that schools have ample room for deep and meaningful learning
Define the core knowledge, skills, attitude to be taught and assessed more specifically so that
it provides guidance and support to teachers;
Align curriculum content and assessment to the available teaching time;
Maintain the alignment in the learning trajectory for learners, without compromising learners’
transition between the grades; and
Present a planning tool to inform instruction during the remaining school terms
The curriculum trimming and reorganisation maintain and support the foundational principles of the
National Curriculum Statement (NCS) Grades R – 12 as stated in the Curriculum and Assessment
Policy Statement (CAPS) namely:
Social transformation: ensuring that the educational imbalances of the past are redressed, and
that equal educational opportunities are provided for all sections of the population;
Active and critical learning: encouraging an active and critical approach to learning, rather than
rote and uncritical learning of given truths;
High knowledge and high skills: the minimum standards of knowledge and skills to be
achieved at each grade are specified and high, achievable standards in all subjects have been
set;
Progression: content and context of each grade shows progression from simple to complex
2
Human rights, inclusivity, environmental and social justice: infusing the principles and
practices of social and environmental justice and human rights as defined in the Constitution
of the Republic of South Africa.
Valuing indigenous knowledge systems: acknowledging the rich history and heritage of this
country as important contributors to nurturing the values contained in the Constitution; and
Credibility, quality and efficiency: providing an education that is comparable in quality, breadth
and depth to those of other countries.
In addition, the principles below guided the process of curriculum reorganisation and trimming:
Maintain the spiral development of values, attitudes, concepts and skills, extension,
consolidation and deeper understanding leading learners towards the final learning outcomes.
Efficiency – less teaching time but more effective learning outcomes.
Inclusivity – learning experience must cater for different types of learners who are differently
abled by providing different types of learning experiences.
Validity – the relevance of the content to the stated goals and outcomes of the curriculum.
Utility –the content must lead to the acquisition of values, attitudes, skills and knowledge that
are considered useful for transition to the next level and have relevance to the contexts in
which learners live.
Feasibility – analyse and examine the content in the light of the time and resources available
to the schools, considering the current socio- economic and political climate.
Coherence – Systematic curriculum mapping must have horizontal, vertical, subject area and
interdisciplinary coherence; and
Emphasise assessment for learning as a teaching strategy as opposed to assessment of
learning to achieve the learning outcomes of each grade and subject.
2. Purpose The purpose of the revised phase plan and revised annual national teaching plans is to:
ensure that meaningful teaching proceeds during the revised school calendar.
assist teachers with guided pacing and sequencing of curriculum content and assessment.
enable teachers to cover the essential core content in each phase within the available time.
address assessment overload to recoup time loss.
assist teachers with planning for the different forms of assessment.
ensure learners are adequately prepared for the subsequent year/s in terms of content, skills,
knowledge, attitudes, and values
3. Implementation Dates To meet the above-mentioned objectives, Section 3 of the CAPS, which deals with the overview of
topics per term and annual teaching plans per subject have been trimmed and/or reorganised for the
year 2020. The revised teaching and assessment plans are effective from the 1st June 2020.

DAILY COVID-19 MEASURES: Daily hygiene routines are to be strictly followed:
Remind learners of the daily routine tests when coming to school.
Encourage learners to stay at home when ill.
Teach learners how to greet without touching.
Learners are to wear masks every day. Masks are only to be removed and placed in a safe place while they are eating.
Supervise snack and lunchtime.
Teach them to cover their mouth and nose with a flexed elbow or tissue when coughing or sneezing. Dispose of the used tissue immediately.
Wash hands with soap and water often or sanitize your hands
Sanitize and clean frequently touched surfaces or (5 table spoons of jik to 1 litre of water) toys, stationery, objects, etc. Introduce this practice as routine.
Slogan: Keep your distance - Teach learners about social distancing and how to greet without touching.
Help learners to cultivate compassion, increase resilience while building a safe environment and caring for others.
Respond to learners’ anxieties with love and care.
Maintain a regular routine to keep the abnormal situation adapted to a “new normal”.
TEACHERS TO ENSURE THE SAFEY OF THEIR LEARNERS IN THEIR OWN CONTEXTS
Beginning Knowledge and Personal and Social Well-being activities should address key concepts and skills relating to Social Science, Natural Science and Technology e.g. investigations, design, enquiry
skills, etc. Ensure that vocabulary development is intentionally included to improve language.
Creative Arts [Visual Arts and Performing Arts] should be integrated very strongly with Languages.
Physical Education will be implemented for one hour per week, the 2nd hour will be utilised for reading of Personal and Social Well-being and Beginning Knowledge content knowledge e.g. comprehension
pieces: “reading for meaning”, stories, poems etc.
Every Life Skills lesson will commence with a 10-minute lesson based on making learners aware of Covid-19 addressing washing hands, healthy habits, symptoms of Covid-19, social distancing, what and
when to report to whom, discussing when a friend/family member pass away, etc.
Learners are expected to complete the DBE workbook activities and one or two written activities or practical per week in a class workbook for BK and PSW
