SUBJECT: ERRATA – PHYSICAL SCIENCES P1 GRADE 12 SEPTEMBER 2017
DATE: 15 SEPTEMBER 2017
The Physical Sciences P2 Grade 12 September was written on Thursday, 07 September
2017. It was brought to our attention that during the course of marking a number of
corrections and additions were detected.
In order to ensure that a standardised approach to marking is adopted across the Province
and ensure that learners are not disadvantaged, the examiner and moderator were asked to
prepare an errata which should address all the concerns raised.
