Assessments & Exams
All exams are set by SSir. Students write two exams a year in grades 10 and 11 and sometimes even three in grade 12.
Exams are password protected and stored on the internet in a secure environment. Teachers (or parents of home-schooling students) contact SSir the day before the exam is due to take place and acquire a password for the exam. These teachers then download any exam papers which need to be printed. Such papers are then printed, reproduced and stored in the school safe until the exam is due.
Teachers are also responsible for extracting or 'unzipping' any support material which might be required in the exam. Examples of these would be maps, data documents, programs, spreadsheets etc.
Exams can be scheduled with some flexibility within the schools' own exam timetable. However, because not all our students write their exams on the same day, an affidavit must be supplied by the school/invigilating person indicating that no copy of the exam paper has left the examination venue and that no copy of the paper is available to the student after he/she has written the paper.
Prelim Exams are handled in exactly the same way.
Final exams in grade 12 are managed and invigilated by the school.
