THE PRACTICAL ASSESSMENT TASK FOR CONSUMER STUDIES
PRODUCTION OF PATCHWORK QUILTING ARTICLES BY HAND
1. INTRODUCTION
The 16 Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement subjects which contain a practical
component all include a practical assessment task (PAT). These subjects are:
• AGRICULTURE: Agricultural Management Practices, Agricultural Technology
• ARTS: Dance Studies, Design, Dramatic Arts, Music, Visual Arts
• SCIENCES: Computer Applications Technology, Information Technology
• SERVICES: Consumer Studies, Hospitality Studies, Tourism
• TECHNOLOGY: Civil Technology, Electrical Technology, Mechanical Technology and
Engineering Graphics and Design
A practical assessment task (PAT) mark is a compulsory component of the final promotion
mark for all candidates offering subjects that have a practical component and counts 25%
(100 marks) of the end-of-year examination mark. The PAT is implemented across the first
three terms of the school year. This is broken down into different phases or a series of
smaller activities that make up the PAT. The PAT allows for learners to be assessed on a
regular basis during the school year and it also allows for the assessment of skills that
cannot be assessed in a written format, e.g. test or examination. It is therefore important
that schools ensure that all learners complete the practical assessment tasks within the
stipulated period to ensure that learners are resulted at the end of the school year. The
planning and execution of the PAT differs from subject to subject.
• During the practical assessment task for patchwork quilting by hand, the learner must
demonstrate his/her knowledge and practical ability/skills to produce patchwork quilting
articles by hand focusing on suitability for selling.
• The practical assessment task for Consumer Studies Grade 12 consists of one layout
and cutting session (part of practical examination 1) and two practical examinations of
four hours each. Learners perform these practical examinations individually.
o Term 2: Practical examination 1 (plus layout and cutting session)
Learners will make half of the article selected for the micro-enterprise used for the
project in term 1.
o Term 3: Practical examination 2
Learners will complete the article started in practical examination 1.
2. MARK ALLOCATION
• Each exam consists of 100 marks. The mark for the practical assessment task is
obtained by combining the marks for the two exams as indicated below:
Practical examination: term 2 (including layout and cutting) 100
Practical examination: term 3 100
Total 200 ÷ 2
Final mark for PAT 100
• The marks for the PAT are part of the end-of-the-year assessment.
• The province will provide two separate computerised mark sheets, one for SBA and one
for the PAT. Both mark sheets must be signed by the teacher, principal and moderator.

3. REQUIREMENTS FOR THE PRACTICAL EXAMINATIONS
Consumer Studies is a choice subject with five practical options. If the school chooses to
offer Consumer Studies as a subject and selects the Patchwork Quilting by Hand as
practical option, the equipment and funds necessary to conduct the PAT are the
responsibility of the school as specified in the CAPS document.
Ensure the following:
• A suitable classroom with the necessary equipment: tables for cutting out; two or more
ironing boards and irons; cutting-out scissors (one for each learner); equipment for
measuring, marking and sewing of the article.
• A minimum of R30 to a maximum of R75 per learner for EACH of the two practical
examinations is required to make the required articles, besides the funding required for
the SBA practical lessons.
• Divide learners into groups of a maximum of 12 learners. Twenty-four learners (two
groups of 12 learners) can perform the examination on the same day, e.g. one group
from 08:00 to 12:00 and the other from 12:00 to 16:00.
• The teacher will need time between the two sessions to prepare the classroom for the
second group.
• Schools with large numbers of learners will need more than one day to complete the
examination.
4. REQUIRED TIMEFRAME
• Layout and cutting is done beforehand in a ONE-HOUR PERIOD under examination
conditions.
• A timeframe of 4 HOURS in total is required per examination (excluding the one-hour
layout and cutting session during practical examination 1).
5. SETTING THE EXAMINATIONS
5.1 Practical examination 1 (term 2)
• This practical examination must be slotted into the timetable for tests and
examinations in the second term.
• Learners will make the article that has been selected for their micro-enterprise
(project in term 1). The production process, workmanship and saleability of the
articles/products form an important aspect of the examination.
• The teacher must buy a commercial pattern for an article that can be completed
in 4 hours with the skills learners gained during the practical lessons for SBA in
grades 10 and 11.
• Teachers have TWO options when selecting the pattern for practical
examination 1:
o Buy a commercial pattern for an article that can be completed in 4 hours
with the skills learners gained during the practical lessons for SBA in
Grades 10 and 11
OR
o Use the same commercial pattern used in practical lessons and remake the
same article once more in 4 hours.
• The article selected should carry a total weighting of 100 points on the skills
code list.
• The techniques to be completed per examination should have a total weighting
of 50 points for each PAT task.
• Learners should start and complete half the article in practical examination 1.

• Learners must complete the one-hour layout and cutting session under
examination conditions prior to practical examination 1.
• After four hours learners should hand in their articles for assessment. After the
assessment has been completed the articles have to be returned to learners for
correction and finishing off, if necessary. The articles will NOT be remarked after
the corrections have been made.
5.2 Practical examination 2 (term 3)
• This examination will take place on a date agreed upon with the moderator.
• The learners will be assessed on the production process, workmanship and the
saleability of the articles.

one-hour layout and cutting session).
• The techniques to be completed should have a total weighting of 100 points.
• The techniques required per examination must have a total weighting of 50
points for each practical examination.
• After four hours learners should hand in their articles for final assessment. After
the assessment has been completed the articles have to be returned to learners
for correction and finishing off, if necessary. The articles will NOT be remarked
after the corrections have been done.
6. PREPARING FOR THE EXAMINATION
The teacher is responsible for the following:
• Set the dates for both practical examinations. Communicate these dates to the SMT of
the school to ensure that these dates do not clash with other school activities.
• Copy the pattern, illustration(s) and instruction sheet for each learner or buy a pattern for
each learner. It is compulsory for each learner to work from an instruction sheet.
• Prepare the mark sheets provided with learners' names and their examination numbers.
• Learners must receive the pattern and instructions for preparation one week (7 school
days) prior to the layout and cutting session.
• Purchase the fabric and haberdashery, cut the fabric to the required size for each
learner.
• Make up a 'kit' for each learner to include the following:
o Fabric in the required size
o The pattern and instruction sheet
o The necessary haberdashery, such as buttons, lace, pins, etc.
• Divide learners into groups according to the number of learners that can be
accommodated easily in the room.

• The list of fabrics, haberdashery, etc. to be purchased
• The estimated cost per learner
• The completed checklist, checked and signed by the principal
• An instruction page for the learners with the assessment criteria and mark
allocation for both practical examination sessions
• Mark sheets for both practical examinations

practical examination 2) indicating the total weighting of techniques
The PAT cannot be done unless it was approved by the subject advisor.
9.2 ON THE DAY of PAT 2
• During term 3 the last group of a maximum of 12 learners will be externally
moderated by the subject advisor while practical examination 1 is being
performed at the school.
• The teacher must have the following available for the moderator on the day of
moderation:
o All the articles that learners made during practical classes for SBA (if not

o A separate set of assessment tools for the moderator to use, with the
names and examination numbers of the learners already on the mark
sheet
• The moderator will select six candidates at random and assess the learners
independently while they are performing the examination
• Afterwards the moderator will compare his/her assessment with that of the
teacher. If the moderator finds that the marks of the teacher differ more than
10% from his/her marks, a block adjustment upwards or downwards should be
made based on the difference.
• The computerised mark sheet must be completed on the day of moderation.

AVERAGE MARK = TOTAL ÷ 6 (number of learners) 66 53
DIFFERENCE = 66 (*T) – 53 (*M) 13
ADJUSTMENT DOWNWARDS UPWARDS –3
*T- Teacher; *M = Moderator
• A block adjustment can also be made based on the professional judgement of the moderator
if the practical examination of the school is not of the expected standard.
• The moderator will discuss the outcome and any adjustments with the teacher. The final
moderated marks should then be entered on the computerised mark sheet.
• The marks of all learners will be affected if an adjustment is made.
• The marks of all the learners need to be finalised and signed by the subject advisor and
principal on the day of this examination. The computerised mark sheet must be completed
