THE PRACTICAL ASSESSMENT TASK FOR CONSUMER STUDIES
FOOD PRODUCTION
1. INTRODUCTION
The 17 Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement subjects which consists of 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; Technical Sciences
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-the-year examination mark. The PAT is
implemented up to the end of October and also allows for learners to be assessed on
skills they have acquired during the weekly practical lessons and practical
examinations in Grades 10 and 11.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 the learner must demonstrate his/her
knowledge and practical ability/skills to produce a variety of quality food
products focusing on suitability for selling.
The practical assessment task for Consumer Studies for Grade 12 consists of
ONE practical examination of THREE HOURS.
Learners will perform the practical examination individually.
2. MARK ALLOCATION
The PAT counts 100 marks.
The marks for the PAT forms part of the end-of-year assessment.
The province will provide separate computerised mark sheets, one for SBA and
one for PAT.

3. REQUIREMENTS FOR THE PRACTICAL EXAMINATION
Consumer Studies is a choice subject with five different practical options. If the
school chooses to offer Consumer Studies as a subject and selects the Food
Production practical option, the equipment and funds necessary to conduct the PAT,
as well as the specified number of weekly practical lessons are the responsibility of
the school, as specified in the CAPS document on page 10.
Ensure the following:
A suitable training kitchen with the necessary equipment must be available:
a minimum of six stoves (gas/electric); a refrigerator; electricity/gas; sinks with
running hot and cold water and equipment and utensils for preparation and
cooking.
A minimum of R80 to a maximum of R150 per learner for the practical
examination is required to purchase ingredients to make the required products,
besides the funding required for the SBA weekly practical lessons.
Divide the learners into groups of a maximum of 6. Twelve learners (two groups
of 6 learners) can perform the practical examination on the same day, e.g. from
08:00 to 11:00 and from 12:00 to 15:00.
The teacher needs time between the two sessions to prepare the classroom for
the following group.
Schools with large numbers of learners will need more than one day to complete
this examination.
4. REQUIRED TIME FRAME
A time frame of THREE HOURS in total is required for the practical examination.
The 3 hours should be allocated as follows:
15 minutes for learners to draw their tests, to settle down at the workstations
allocated to them and to study the recipes and the sequence of work received.
Learners may also start collecting ingredients and equipment during this time.
2 hours for the preparation of the products under examination conditions.
45 minutes for the teacher to do evaluation, check the workstations of the
learners and complete the mark sheets.
5. SETTING THE PRACTICAL EXAMINATION
Practical examination (Term 3/4)
The practical examination will take place on a date agreed upon with the
moderator.
The production process and saleability of the products form an important aspect
of this practical examination.
During the practical examination learners must demonstrate a variety of
culinary skills and techniques.
The teacher must set a minimum of THREE different tests that are suitable
for the available budget and resources of the school.
Each test must:
o Have at least TWO products
o Have a minimum skills-code weighting of 20 points
o Include a variety of culinary skills and techniques

Consumer Studies 4 DBE/PAT 2020 (Revised)
NSC (Food Production)
Include ONE of the following PER TEST. A product selected for one test may
not be repeated in another test to ensure that a variety of skills and techniques
are tested in each test.
o Yeast product (baked or deep-fried)
o Choux pastry
o A gelatine dish (not commercial jelly)
o Home-made short crust pastry for tarts, pies or quiche
o Swiss roll
o Soft meringue, such as lemon meringue pie or queen of bread pudding
o Sugar cookery
The second product can include any appropriate skill or technique as long as
the total skills-code weighting adds up to a minimum of 20 points. The weighting
of the two products will be equal or as equal as possible.
All recipes must:
o Be neatly typed in standard or action format
o Have clear instructions in short sentences and easy language
o Be small, 2–3 portions
o Be suitable for the available budget and other resources
o Include the expected criteria: taste, texture, appearance
o Be clearly illustrated
6. PREPARING FOR THE EXAMINATION
The teacher is responsible for the following:
Set the dates for the practical examination. Communicate these dates to the
SMT of the school to ensure that they do not clash with other school activities.
All the equipment must be in working order and the stoves have to be serviced
and repaired before the start of the practical examination.
Photocopy the tests (recipes and work order) for the learners.
Prepare mark sheets with the learners' names and their examination numbers.
Learners will draw a test ONE week (7 school days) before the date of the
practical examination so that they can prepare.
Calculate the quantities to be purchased according to the number of learners in
Grade 12.
Plan the final shopping list with the estimated prices.
Purchase the ingredients.
Clean, tidy up and sanitise the training kitchen.
Put out the necessary equipment and ingredients. Learners should not run
around during the examination looking for equipment in the storeroom; all
equipment must be readily available at their workstations.

7. PERFORMING THE EXAMINATION
Practical examination in Term 3/4: 3 hours
When entering the training kitchen (examination room), learners will have
15 minutes to study the recipes and the sequence of work before commencing
with the practical examination.
Learners performing the same test must be placed at different workstations to
maintain social distancing.
The products should be ready for assessment after TWO hours. Learners will
lose 2 marks for every 5 minutes late up to a maximum of 20 marks.
Only the teacher, the moderator and the learners may be in the room during the
practical examination.
The teacher must invigilate and assess the learners while they are performing
the practical examination, and may NOT do any other work or assist the
learners in any way.
On completion of both products, learners may serve. Learners do not have to
wait until the end of the two-hour period.
Learners are allowed to do final clean-up while the teacher is assessing their
products.
The teacher must record the marks.
8. EVALUATION
The teacher and external moderator have 45 minutes to evaluate the final
products, inspect the learners' workstations and complete the mark sheets.
While their products are being evaluated, the learners should tidy their
workstations so that the teacher/moderator may inspect the workstations for the
final allocation of marks.
9. MODERATION OF THE PRACTICAL EXAMINATION
9.1 BEFORE the practical examination:
The teacher must submit the following to the subject advisor for approval during the
last week of June or earlier:
The tests and relevant recipes indicating the weighting of the techniques
according to the skills code
The proposed date for external on-site moderation for the last group of learners
This date should be negotiated with the subject advisor
The sequence of work of each test
The marking guidelines with the desirable qualities of each product for each test
The planning for the purchases
A draft budget and the estimate cost per learner (must be available on request)
The checklist signed by the principal
The examination cannot take place unless the subject advisor has approved
the items above.

NSC (Food Production)
9.2 ON THE DAY of practical examination:
During Term 3/4 a group of 6 learners will be externally moderated by the
relevant subject advisor while they are performing the practical examination at
the school.
The teacher must have the following available for the moderator on the day of
moderation:
o The marks of all the learners who finished the practical examination
o A copy of the completed mark sheet for the weekly practical lessons
o A copy of the three tests the learners will be performing
o A separate set of assessment tools for the moderator to use, with the
names and examination numbers of the learners already written on the
mark sheet
The moderator will assess the learners independently while they are performing
the practical examination.
Afterwards the moderator will compare his/her assessment with the assessment
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 sheets must be completed on the day of moderation.
The table below demonstrates how to determine the difference between the
moderator's marks and teacher's marks to establish whether adjustment is needed
and the margin of adjustment required:
PAT

Learner B 83 70
Learner C 68 53
Learner D 59 44
Learner E 49 40
Learner F 45 40
TOTAL 388 316
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 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 entered on the
computerised mark sheet.
This mark sheet must be signed by the teacher, the principal and the subject
advisor.
