End of Phase Assessment

For subscribers or members who have used the journals

For the end of the Junior and intermediate phases we offer an end of phases assessment which is the document that the Department of Education will require from you at the end of your child’s grade 3, grade 6 and grade 9 years – we offer grade 3 and grade 6 at present.

We have gone one step further for these end of phase assessments in that we have created Fun Journals and a website filled with resources to complete the journals – that allow you to maintain your teaching style and philosophy. If you do choose to do the journals then at the end of the year you simply send these through to our assessor, complete the Afrikaans and Maths assessments and your child has  a short interview with our assessor. We will use all these to create their end of phase assessment report so that there is no need for the parent ot be worried about focusing on assessment or the child to stress about any looming examinations.

Prices for the End of Phase Assessments are…

  • Grade 3 – R1200
  • Grade 6 – R1800
