The Physical Sciences P2 Grade 12 for June Examinations 2023 was written on Monday, 12
June 2023. We were made aware of errors and omissions that was discovered during the
marking process.

The amendment with regards to the marking was prepared in conjunction with the examiner and
the moderator of the paper. This amendment addresses the errors and omissions and also
ensures that learners are not disadvantaged. The following standardised approach to marking
must be adopted across the Province.
