NOTES TO MARKERS PREAMBLE
The notes to markers are provided for quality assurance purposes to ensure the following:
(a) Fairness, consistency and reliability in the standard of marking
(b) Facilitate the moderation of candidates' scripts at the different levels
(c) Streamline the marking process considering the broad spectrum of markers across the
country
(d) Implement-appropriate measures in the teaching, learning and assessment of the
subject at schdols/institutions of learning
1. For marking and moderation purposes, the following colours are recommended:
Marker: Red
Senior Marker: Green
Deputy Chief Marker: Brown
Chief Marker: Pink
Internal Moderator: Orange
DBE Moderator: Turquoise
2. Candidates' responses must be in full sentences for SECTIONS B and C.
However, this would depend on the nature of the question.
3. A comprehensive marking guideline has been provided but this is by no means
exhaustive. Due consideration should be given to an answer that is correct but:
* Uses a different expression from that which appears in the marking guideline
* Comes from another credible source
* Original
+ A different approach is used
NOTE: There is only ONE correct answer in SECTION A.
4. Take note of other relevant answers provided by candidates and allocate marks
accordingly. (In cases where the answer is unclear or indicates some
understanding, part-marks should be awarded, for example, one mark instead
of the maximum of two marks.)
5. The word 'Submax' is used to facilitate the allocation of marks within a question
or sub-question.
6. The purpose of circling marks (guided by 'max' in the breakdown of marks) on
the right-hand side is to ensure consistency and accuracy in the marking of
scripts as well as for calculation and moderation purposes.
7. Subtotals to questions must be written in the right-hand margin. Circle the
subtotals as indicated by the allocation of marks. This mustbe guided by 'max'
in the marking guidelines. Only the total for each question should appear in the
left-hand margin next to the appropriate question number.
8. In an indirect question, the theory as well as the response must be relevant and
related to the question.

Correct numbering of answers to questions or sub-questions is recommended in
SECTIONS A and B. However, if the numbering is incorrect, follow the sequence
of the candidates' responses. Candidates will be penalised if the latter is not clear.
No additional credit must be given for repetition of facts. Indicate with an 'R’.
The differentiation between ‘evaluate’ and ‘critically evaluate’ can be explained
as follows:
11.1
11.2
NOTE:
When ‘evaluate’ is used, candidates are expected to respond in either
a positive/negative manner or take a neutral (positive and negative)
stance, e.g. Positive: 'CO/DA eliminates time and costs spent” on
lengthy civil court proceedings.'V
When ‘critically evaluate’ is used, candidates are expected to respond
in either a positive/negative manner or take a neutral (positive and
negative) stance. In this instance candidates are also expected to
support their responses with more depth, e.g. ‘CO/DA eliminates time
and costs spent/Y on lengthy civil court proceedings’, because the
employer will not be liable for compensation to the employee for injuries
sustained during working hours as long as it can be proved that the
business was not negligent.'/
1. The above could apply to 'analyse'’ as well.
2. Note the placing of the tick (/) in the allocation of marks.
The allocation of marks must be informed by the nature of the question, cognitive
verb used,

Cognitive verbs, such as:
12.1
12.2
Advise, name, state, mention, outline, motivate, recommend, suggest,
(list not exhaustive) do not usually require much depth in candidates’
responses. Therefore, the mark allocation for each statement/answer
appears at the end.
Define, describe, explain, discuss, elaborate, distinguish, differentiate,
compare tabulate, justify, analyse, evaluate, critically evaluate (list not
exhaustive) require a greater depth of understanding, application and
reasoning. Therefore, the marks must be allocated more objectively to
ensure that assessing is conducted according to-established norms so
that uniformity, consistency and fairness are achiéVed.
Mark only the FIRST answer where candidates offer mofesthan one answer for
SECTION B and C questions that require one answer.

responses and ignore the rest of the responses. Indicate by drawing a line across

If two-facts are written in one sentence, award the candidate FULL credit. Point 14.1
above still applies.
If candidates are required to provide their own examples/views, brainstorm this at
the marking centre to finalise alternative answers.
Use of the cognitive verbs and allocation of marks:
14.4.1 If the number of facts are specified, questions that require candidates to
‘describe/discuss/explain' may be marked as follows:
+ Fact 2 marks (or as indicated in the marking guidelines)
+ Explanation 1 mark (two marks will be allocated in Section C)
The ‘fact’ and ‘explanation’ are given separately in the marking guideline to
facilitate mark allocation.
If the number of facts required is not specified, the allocation of marks must be
informed by the nature of the question and the maximum mark allocated in the
marking guideline.
ONE mark may be awarded for answers that are easy to recall, requires
one word answers or is quoted directly from a scenario/case study. This
applies to SECTIONS B and C in particular (where applicable).
