Amakhodi Okukala CAPS Achazwa: Isikala Samaphuzu Ayi-7 Ezikoleni Zase-SA

Ukubhala amamaki kuphela uze uthole ukuthi amakhodi okukala awahambisani namabhande amaphesenti. Ukulungiselela ukucwaninga kwesifunda nokuthola amakhodi angahambisani kuzifundo. Abazali ngasemlonyeni wereport bebuza ukuthi i-Code 5 isho ini. Kubafundisi abaningi, ama-HoD kanye nabaphathi bezikole, amakhodi okukala e-CAPS ayiwona umthombo waminyaka yonke wokuphithizela nolawulo oluningi. I-Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement (CAPS) isebenzisa isikala sokukala esivumelana nesikhathi samaphuzu ayi-7 ukukala ukusebenza kwabafundi ku-GET nase-FET, lawo makhodi avela ekhadini ngalinye lereport, adlulisa izinqumo zokukhushulwa futhi kufanele ahambisane nezimfuno ze-Department of Basic Education (DBE).

Lolu hlu lukunikeza amakhodi okukala e-CAPS achazwe: isikala samaphuzu ayi-7, amabhande amaphesenti, ukuthi i-Foundation Phase ihluke kanjani, nokuthi uwasebenzisa kanjani ngendlela efanele emakhadini ereport nangenqubomgomo yakho yokukala. Ukuze ubone ukubuka okuphelele kwezimfuno, bheka izimfuno zokukala ze-CAPS 2026.

Yini Amakhodi Okukala e-CAPS?

Amakhodi okukala e-CAPS yizinkomba zezinombolo (1–7) ezimelela amazinga okufunda abafundi ngokwenqubomgomo yokukala ye-Department of Basic Education. Ikhodi ngayinye ihambisana nobubanzi obuthile bamaphesenti nencazelo yokufinyelela, inikeza indlela ehlala ingaguquki yokuxhumana ngokusebenza kwabafundi kuzo zonke izikole zaseNingizimu Afrika.

Kungani kubalulekile: La makhodi ayaphoqeleka kukho konke ukukala okusemthethweni, amakhadi ereport, nokuthumela ukulandela i-DBE. Ukusebenzisa ngendlela engalungile kungaholela emarekhodini abafundi angalungile, izingxabano zokukhushulwa, nezinkinga zokulandela lapho kucwaningwa izifundazwe.

Isikala sokukala sivumelanisa ukukala kuzo zonke izifundo, kwenza kube lula kubazali, abafundisi kanye nezikhulu zezemfundo ukuqonda intuthuko yabafundi. Esikhundleni sokuthembela kuphela emaphesentini — angashintsha encazelweni phakathi kwezifundo nezikole — amakhodi anikeza izinga lokufinyelela elihambisanayo nelihambisana nezimfuno ze-CAPS.

Isikala Samaphuzu Ayi-7: Amakhodi Namabhande Amaphesenti

Isikala samaphuzu ayi-7 se-CAPS sisebenza kuzo zonke izifundo ku-GET Phase (Amabanga 4–9) nase-FET Phase (Amabanga 10–12). Ikhodi ngayinye imelela izinga lokufinyelela elithile elihambisana nobubanzi bamaphesenti nencazelo.

Ikhodi	Izinga Lokufinyelela	Ububanzi Bamaphesenti	Incazelo

Ukuqonda Izinga Ngalinye Lekhodi

Ikhodi 7 (Ukufinyelela Okuphezulu Kakhulu): Abafundi abafinyelela 80–100% bakhombisa ubuchwepheshe obuhluke kakhulu esifundweni. Basebenzisa ngokungaguquki ulwazi ezimeni ezintsha, bakhombisa ukucabanga okubalulekile, futhi bedlula okulindelwe yikharikhulamu. Leli khodi likhombisa abafundi abaselungele izingqinamba eziphezulu futhi bangafaneleka emiklomelo yezifundo noma ukubonakala.

Ikhodi 6 (Ukufinyelela Okuhle Kakhulu): Abafundi abathola 70–79% bakhombisa ukukwazi okuphezulu nokuqonda okujulile. Bahlangabezana nazo zonke izimfuno futhi bakhombisa amakhono okusebenzisa aqinile. Leli zinga limelela ukusebenza ngaphezulu kwesilinganiso okufaneleka ukungena enyuvesi nasezinhlelweni ezincintisayo.

Ikhodi 5 (Ukufinyelela Okuningi): Ububanzi 60–69% bukhombisa ukusebenza okuhle nokuqonda okuqinile. Abafundi bahlangabezana nezimfuno zekharikhulamu futhi bangasebenzisa ulwazi ngosizo oluncane. Leli yizinga eliphansi elivame ukudingeka ukungena enyuvesi ezifundweni eziningi.

Ikhodi 4 (Ukufinyelela Okwanele): Abafundi abafinyelela 50–59% bahlangabezana nezimfuno eziphansi kodwa bangadinga usizo olwengeziwe. Leli khodi limelela ukusebenza okwanelayo okukhombisa ukuqonda okuyisisekelo. Ku-FET Phase, Ikhodi 4 ivame ukuba yizinga eliphansi lokukhushulwa ezifundweni ezithile.

Ikhodi 3 (Ukufinyelela Okuphakathi): Ububanzi 40–49% bukhombisa ukuqonda okungaphela nezikhala ekolweni. Abafundi bakhombisa ukuqonda okuthile kwemicabango kodwa baklwela ukusebenzisa. Leli zinga likhombisa ukuthi usizo olubalulekile luyadingeka.

Ikhodi 2 (Ukufinyelela Okuyisisekelo): Abafundi abathola 30–39% bakhombisa ukuqonda okulinganiselwe nezikhala ezinkulu ekolweni. Bakhombisa ukuqonda okuncane kwemicabango eyisisekelo futhi badinga ukungenelela okuqinile.

Ikhodi 1 (Akukafinyelelwa): Ububanzi 0–29% bukhombisa ubufakazi obunganele bokufunda. Abafundi abahlangabezani nezimfuno eziphansi futhi badinga ukungenelela nokusekelwa ngokusheshayo. Leli khodi livusa ukukala okwengeziwe nezinyathelo zokusekela.

I-Foundation Phase: Umehluko Wesikala Samaphuzu Ama-4

Umehluko obalulekile: I-Foundation Phase (Amabanga R–3) isebenzisa uhlelo lokukala oluhlukile. Esikhundleni sesikala samaphuzu ayi-7, ukukala kwe-Foundation Phase kusebenzisa isikala samaphuzu ama-4 namakhodi achazayo kunalezi zezinombolo.

Ikhodi	Izinga Lokufinyelela	Incazelo
4	Kuhle Kakhulu	Umfundi udlula okulindelwe, ukhombisa ukuqonda okuqhubekayo
3	Kuhle	Umfundi uhlangabezana nokulindelwe, ukhombisa ukuqonda okuqinile
2	Kwanelisa	Umfundi uhlangabezana ngokungenana nokulindelwe, udinga usizo
1	Udinga Ukuthuthukiswa	Umfundi akahlangabezani nokulindelwe, udinga ukungenelela

I-Foundation Phase igxile ekukaleni ukuthuthuka kunokukala okusekelwe emaphesentini. Abafundisi basebenzisa ukubuka, imisebenzi yokwenziwa nokukala okungakahleleki ukunquma amazinga okufinyelela. Amakhadi ereport ngokuvamile akhombisa amakhodi achazayo kunamaphesenti, ekhombisa ubunjalo bokuthuthuka bezemfundo zentsha.

Kungani umehluko: I-Foundation Phase ibeka phambili ukuthuthuka okuphelele, amakhono omphakathi, nokufunda okuyisisekelo/amanani kunokukala kwezemfundo okuyisemthethweni. Isikala samaphuzu ama-4 sihambisana nezigaba zokuthuthuka futhi sigwema ukubeka ingcindezi engakufanele kubafundi abancane.

Indlela Yokusebenzisa Amakhodi Okukala e-CAPS Emakhadini Ereport

Amakhadi ereport kufanele akhombise amakhodi okukala e-CAPS eduze namamaki amaphesenti nencazelo yokufinyelela. Nansi indlela yokuwasebenzisa ngendlela efanele:

Imibuzo Evame Ukubuzwa

Umehluko ungakanani phakathi kwamakhodi okukala e-CAPS namamaki amaphesenti?

Amakhodi okukala e-CAPS (1–7) amazinga okufinyelela avumelana nesikhathi ahambisana nobubanzi bamaphesenti. Ngenkathi amamaki amaphesenti akhombisa isibalo sangempela (isb. 73%), amakhodi okukala anikeza incazelo yokufinyelela ehlala ingaguquki (isb. Ikhodi 6 = Ukufinyelela Okuhle Kakhulu, 70–79%). Amakhadi ereport kufanele akhombise kokubili: amaphesenti akhombisa ukusebenza okuqondile, kuyilapho amakhodi anikeza izinga lokufinyelela elivumelana nesikhathi ukuze kuqhathaniswe kuzo zonke izifundo nezikole.

Abafundi be-Foundation Phase basebenzisa yini isikala esifanayo samaphuzu ayi-7?

Cha. I-Foundation Phase (Amabanga R–3) isebenzisa isikala samaphuzu ama-4 esichazayo (Kuhle Kakhulu, Kuhle, Kwanelisa, Udinga Ukuthuthukiswa) kunalesi sezinombolo samaphuzu ayi-7. Lokhu kubonisa ubunjalo bokuthuthuka bezemfundo zentsha, lapho ukukala kugxile ekuthuthukeni okuphelele kunokukala kwezemfundo okuyisemthethweni. Isikala samaphuzu ayi-7 sisebenza ku-GET Phase (Amabanga 4–9) nase-FET Phase (Amabanga 10–12).

Ngingaguqula kanjani imaki yephesenti ibe yikhodi yokukala ye-CAPS?

Hlanganisa iphesenti nobubanzi buhambisanayo: 80–100% = Ikhodi 7, 70–79% = Ikhodi 6, 60–69% = Ikhodi 5, 50–59% = Ikhodi 4, 40–49% = Ikhodi 3, 30–39% = Ikhodi 2, 0–29% = Ikhodi 1. Zungeza amaphesenti usebenzisa imithetho evamile (0.5 nangaphezulu zizungeza phezulu) ngaphambi kokunikeza amakhodi. Isibonelo, 68.7% izungeza ku-69%, ewangena kububanzi 60–69%, ngakho iyi-Khodi 5.

Kwenzekani uma isilinganiso somfundi sigqama ngqo emngceleni (isb. 70%)?

Lapho iphesenti ingena ngqo emngceleni (njenge-70%), ingeyikhodi ephakeme. Ngakho 70% ihambisana ne-Khodi 6 (Ukufinyelela Okuhle Kakhulu, 70–79%), hhayi Ikhodi 5. Lokhu kusebenza nakweminye imingcele: 60% = Ikhodi 5, 50% = Ikhodi 4, 40% = Ikhodi 3, 30% = Ikhodi 2. Lokhu kuqinisekisa ukuthi abafundi bathola imbeko yokuhlangabezana nesilinganiso esiphansi salezi zinga lokufinyelela.
