Africa-Press<\/a> – South-Africa<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>IT IS all systems go for the administration of the National Senior Certificate (NSC), Senior certificate and the Adult Education and Training (AET) in KwaZulu Natal, the provincial department said.<\/p>\n

Wednesday marks the first day of the NSC May\/June 2021 examinations which will end on July 7.<\/p>\n

\u201cExamination is expected to kick off on Wednesday, May 26 2021, to a smooth start with Eastern Languages and in the afternoon Accounting P1 will be written. A total of 37 553 candidates are registered to write.\u201d said KZN MEC for Education, Kwazi Mshengu.<\/p>\n

The KZN education department explained that the different examination categories and number of candidates registered are as follows:<\/p>\n

Supplementary exam has 13 857 full-time and part-time 245 candidates registered.<\/p>\n

Amended Senior Certificate had 23 451 candidates registered.<\/p>\n

Adult Education and Training (AET) has 1 704 registered candidates.<\/p>\n

\u201cAdmission letters have been sent to the district offices for distribution to candidates who will be writing. All candidates are reminded to collect examination admission letters (time-tables) at the districts, or schools where they registered to write, from 19 to 25 May 2021.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn order to avoid imposters writing on behalf of candidates, candidates were requested to attach a recent photograph onto the registration form,\u201d the department said.<\/p>\n

In the KZN exam writing centres candidates will undergo a three-point check which will be conducted by invigilators. The invigilators will be checking the ID, personal timetable and the registration form.<\/p>\n

\u201cCandidates must be warned not to take a chance of getting someone to write on their behalf because they will be caught out,\u201d the department said.<\/p>\n

Marking for the May\/June NSC\/SC 2021 is scheduled to commence on the July 9 to conclude on July 22. As it stands, five marking centres have been identified.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn conclusion, my appeal to all candidates is to follow all examinations and Covid-19 protocols and there is no substitute for hard work. I wish you all the best of luck and success,\u201d Mshengu said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
