Like in New Year's Eve, the Class of 2015 is starting to count down. The reality is at the door steps. My son Sbonelo Makhotha is among the young people who will receive "Matric" results on Tuesday 06th January 2016.
Close to 800,000 learners wrote the 2015 Grade 12 Curriculum Assessment Policy Statement ( CAPS) Examination. Although most Learners will get their results from their schools in the morning of the sixth it will be too late. The results will also be published in the print media-Daily Newspapers.
Other learners with an access of internet will use their devices to log on some websites like the Department of Basic Education to download their results.
Eyewitness News on matric.ewn.co.za powered by Vodacom. SABC Education offers an SMS and USSD service
which is available to learners from 9 December 2015 until 31 January 2016. Learners send their ID number and exam number to SMS number 35658 or dial *120*35658#. SMSs cost R3 and USSD
rates apply. The Matric results will be available from 6 January.
Lot of drama ranges from excitement to the worse disappointment will also take place immediately after the results are out. The Department of Social Service has provided the helpline for both parents and learner.
In advance, the Mpumalanga ICT Club says "congratulations class of 2015."
