What is the definition of a “summative assessment”? How are they different from “formative” assessments?

Summative assessments assess learners' overall understanding of the content taught during the term. These assessments usually assess a bulk of content and are more heavily weighted than formative assessments.

Will I require any specific stationery or learning resources such as a printer and/or scanner? How often would access be required?

Please see our stationery and equipment list here.

Are there additional costs?

There are no additional costs associated with Adult Matric — this includes the purchase of textbooks or ASC Examination Fees required by the DBE.

Although there is no need to purchase any subject textbooks, adult learners will need to purchase the required set work for each of their language subjects. These currently include English, Afrikaans and isiXhosa.

How old do I need to be to apply for the Adult Matric programme at UCT Online High School?

Applicants can be as young as 16 years old when applying for Adult Matric but will need to be 21 years old when they write their ASC examination.

How is cyberbullying managed?

Through Valenture Institute, UCT Online High School is proud to be a member of the Educational Collaborative for International Schools (ECIS) Community. All team members who engage with learners have completed up to ECIS level two training on Child Protection. Learn more about the ECIS Community here.

We have a zero-tolerance policy toward any form of bullying. We know that learners learn best in a safe and calm environment that is free from disruption or intimidation. Key staff members that engage with learners during their learning journey complete intensive training to ensure that they are fully equipped to offer support as and if appropriate.

For more information on our safeguarding of children policy, please read here.

What NQF level is an Adult Matric qualification?

The Adult Matric Amended Senior Certificate (ASC) is on the same NQF level 4 as the National Senior Certificate (NSC) for high school learners.

What Learner Management System (LMS) do you use?

Our customised Moodle platform – it’s fantastic!

Can I write my final matric examination at my home?

No, you cannot. You will have to write your ASC examinations in person at a registered venue identified by the Department of Basic Education (DBE).
