FOREWORD BY THE MINISTER OF HIGHER EDUCATION AND TRAINING
A new qualification, namely the National Certificate (Vocational) was introduced to the college sector at the start of 2007. This new qualification is currently offered alongside the Report 190/1 N programmes at colleges and provides post-school vocational training. Where the Report 190/1 programmes accommodate those already in employed in the workplace and support the training of apprentices, the National Certificate (Vocational) targets those who are not yet employed by providing them with a vocational training opportunity pitched at Levels 2, 3 and 4 on the National Qualifications Framework. This year is significant in that this is the first year that the National Certificate (Vocational) was offered on NQF Level 4.
It is with great pleasure that I present the Department of Higher Education and Trainings annual report on the 2009 national examinations in the FET college sector in South Africa.
I thank all the officials, stakeholders and roleplayers and acknowledge their contributions in making a success of the college sector. It is clear that we have a great deal of work to do together to achieve the goals of access to quality education and training that our young people seek, and deserve.
The FET college sector has grown and matured over the past 15 years in offering vocational education and training opportunities. Over the years FET colleges have emerged as a vital part of the coordinated skills development strategy for South Africa. One of the core goals of the college sector is to increase the number of young people and adults accessing continuing education in a way that supports skills development and our long term goal of lifelong learning and development for all. It is our intention to establish FET colleges as institutions of choice and to ensure that the college qualifications translate into work placements.
Dr BE NZIMANDE, MP MINISTER OF HIGHER EDUCATION AND TRAINING 30 DECEMBER 2009
1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND
The programmes currently offered at FET Colleges have been designed to be responsive to the skills development needs of South Africa. The Report 190/191 programmes cater primarily for those already employed and complement the various apprenticeship initiatives of industry. The National Certificate (Vocational) now constitutes the backbone of all FET College programmes. where core of these programmes is based on the coming together of the once separate theoretical and practical workplace components.
In addition, the NC (V) requirement that all students offer a Language, Life Orientation (includes a business computing component) and Mathematics or Mathematical Literacy over and above their four (4) vocational subjects per NQF level aims to ensure that all students are prepared for life and work in an increasingly technological, numerical and information-driven world.
1.2 PURPOSE OF THIS REPORT
The purpose of this technical report on the 2009 FET College examinations is to provide relevant data to trainers, curriculum planners, policy analysts, college lecturers, panels of examiners and moderators, the external quality assurors and stakeholders. Intervention strategies in this sector should be based on this report. Additional information for researchers and analysts will be available on request. The following policy frameworks inform the conduct, administration and management of internal and external assessment at FET Colleges: 1) Regulations pertaining to the National Policy Relating to the Examination of Formal Technical College Instruction Programmes as promulgated in Government Gazette 22760 of 26 October 2001 for Report 190/1 programmes. 2) National Policy on the Conduct, Administration and Management of the Assessment of the National Certificates (Vocational) as promulgated in Government Gazette 30287 of 12 September 2007 for NC (V) programmes. 3) Policy for the National Certificates (Vocational): Qualifications at Levels 2 to 4 on the National Qualifications Framework (NQF) as promulgated in Government Gazette 28677 of 29 March 2006. 4) Department of Education, National Certificates (Vocational) Subject Guidelines. 5) Department of Education, National Certificates (Vocational) Assessment Guidelines. 6) Minimum Admission Requirements for Higher Certificate, Diploma and Degree Programmes requiring a National Certificate (Vocational) at Level 4 of the National Qualification Framework as promulgated in Government Gazette 32743 of 26 November 2009.
1.3 POLICY FRAMEWORK
2. INSTRUCTIONAL PROGRAMMES OFFERED AT FET COLLEGES

The following instructional programme categories are offered by FET Colleges: National N Certificates: N2-N6 National Integrated Certificate National Intermediate Certificate National Senior Certificate National N Diplomas Non-National Certificates National Certificate (Vocational) Level 2-4

In addition, a student must have achieved at least 60% in three fundamental subjects including the language of learning and teaching in the higher education institution and at least 70% in the four vocational subjects chosen for the NC (V) Level 4.
3. INTERVENTIONS IMPLEMENTED DURING 2009
The NC (V) Level 4 examination was written for the first time in 2009.
Interventions were mainly curricular in nature and focused primarily on lecturer training and the provision of subject-specific study material to students.
3.1 CURRICULAR INTERVENTIONS
The year 2009 was dedicated to enhancing student support through specified student support centres. These are detailed in the student support framework and manual. The following was undertaken by the Department to support the teaching and learning process in 2009: (a) Development and distribution of workbooks for Mathematics and Mathematical Literacy Books were distributed to Colleges, accompanied by lecturer training workshops. (b) Development and distribution of students and lecturers notes
These provided practical exercises and application for the NC (V) subject Computer Programming in the programme Information Technology and Computer Science at Level 3 and 4. These were distributed to FET Colleges in May 2009. Target: lecturers and students at all 50 public FET colleges. (c) Lecturer training Training was undertaken to support FET College lecturers to implement NC (V) subjects for the first time. Training sessions were offered in the following subjects: Mathematics and Mathematical Literacy Education and Development Levels 2 and 3 November 2009 for all FET Colleges implementing this programme. Mechatronics Level 3 November 2009 for all FET Colleges implementing this programme. Safety in Society Levels 2, 3 and 4 January 2010 for all FET Colleges implementing this programme.
Apart from nationally coordinated workshops for lecturer training, public FET colleges also undertook additional lecturer training where needed to implement NC (V) subjects. Target: lecturers at all 50 public FET colleges. (d) Curriculum guidelines The Department of Education has a feedback system in place where difficulties in implementing the Subject Guidelines and Assessment Guidelines are reported and acted upon to assist with the initial implementation of NC (V) programmes. Target: lecturers at all 50 public FET colleges.
11
3.2 ASSESSMENT INTERVENTIONS
The following was undertaken by the College Examinations Directorate to support the examination process in the national November 2009 examinations: (a) EXEMPLAR QUESTION PAPERS Exemplar question papers and accompanying marking guidelines were provided to all colleges for Level 4 NC (V) subjects. Target: lecturers and students at all 50 public FET colleges. (b) ADDITIONAL SCRUTINY OF QUESTION PAPERS The College Examinations Directorate made NC (V) question papers available to subject specialists from Higher Education Institutes and other critical friends who were able to provide relevant commentary on the standard of question papers. Where it was necessary to implement recommendations, this was undertaken, with due recognition given to the different levels on which the subjects were written. Target: students at all 50 public FET colleges. (c) LANGUAGE SIMPLIFICATION The language of the NC (V) question papers was considered. This facilitated making the question paper accessible to the students, given the fact that most of the students are Second Language speakers and the question papers are not set in their Home Language. The fundamental subjects on Level 2, 3 and 4 received special attention.
12
4. STRUCTURE AND COMPONENTS OF ASSESSMENT

4.1 INTERNAL ASSESSMENT
The NC (V) comprises an internal and an external assessment component. All NC (V) candidates are expected to complete and submit the prescribed number of site-based assessment tasks as stipulated in the Subject and Assessment subjects for each of the seven subjects offered during an academic year. Internal Continuous Assessment (ICASS) is set, administered and assessed internally at college level and is subject to both internal and external moderation from the Department and Umalusi respectively. ICASS constitutes a compulsory component of the final promotion mark for all students offering the NC (V). (a) Fundamental Subjects Internal Continuous Assessment includes the following requirements for the fundamental subjects: A Portfolio of Evidence containing the internal assessment tasks for all subjects, conducted by the lecturer according to the requirements specified in the Subject Assessment Guidelines for the subjects listed in the National Certificate (Vocational). The Internal Continuous Assessment mark allocated to the Portfolio of Evidence has a weighting of 25%.
(b) Vocational Subjects
Internal Continuous Assessment includes the following requirements for the vocational component: A Portfolio of Evidence containing the internal assessment tasks of all subjects, conducted by the lecturer according to the minimum requirements specified in the Subject Assessment Guidelines. The Internal Continuous Assessment mark allocated to the portfolio of evidence has a weighting of 50%.
4.2 EXTERNAL ASSESSMENT
External assessment comprises a written examination and an Integrated Summative Assessment Task (ISAT) across all vocational subjects and a written examination for the fundamental subjects. The written examination mark and the Integrated Summative Assessment Task mark have a combined weighting of 50% for vocational subjects, while the written examination accounts for a weighting of 75% across fundamental subjects. (a) Integrated Summative Assessment Task (ISAT) The weighting allocated to the ISAT is 30% of the external assessment mark. The Integrated Summative Assessment Task (ISAT) is only applicable to vocational subjects and is a practical assessment task that tests the students cumulative skills and knowledge achieved throughout the year. The task requires integrated application of competencies and the student's performance is evaluated through direct and systematic observation.
13
All NC (V) candidates are expected to complete and submit two ISATs per year for the particular NQF level being offered, one of which is a programme ISAT combining the three core subjects offered in a programme and the other a subject ISAT which focuses on the optional subject offered by the candidate. ISATs are externally set and moderated and internally administered and assessed. ISATs constitute a compulsory component of the final promotion mark for all students offering the NC (V). (b) Written examination A written examination(s) will be conducted for all subjects by the Department according to the requirements as specified in the Subject Assessment Guidelines for the subjects listed in the National Certificate (Vocational). The weighting allocated to written examinations in fundamental subjects will be 75%, while for fundamental subjects it comprises 35% of the final promotion mark in each vocational subject.

5. FET COLLEGE EXAMINATIONS 2009

5.1 The Examination Cycle
The examination cycle consists of a series of processes in examinations starting with the registration of examination centres and culminating in certification. The Department engages in the different examination processes as depicted in Figure A below to ensure the delivery of a credible examination. All the examination processes in FET Colleges are conducted in accordance with the Regulations pertaining to the National Policy Relating to the Examination of Formal Technical College Instruction Programmes as promulgated in Government Gazette 22760 of 26 October 2001 for Report 190/1 programmes and the National Policy on the Conduct, Administration and Management of the Assessment of the National Certificates (Vocational) as promulgated in Government Gazette 30287 of 12 September 2007 for NC (V) programmes.
Figure A: The Examination Cycle
15
5.1.1 REGISTRATION OF CENTRES
The Department accredits and registers examination centres in accordance with the guidelines stipulated in the Government Gazette No. 22760 of 26 October 2001. While the FET College examinations are offered at examination centres situated in all nine provinces, the examination centres are accredited, registered and audited by the national Department in line with the National Policy on the Conduct, Administration and Management of the Assessment of the National Certificate (Vocational) dated 12 September 2007. The Department has recently established a unit, which deals exclusively with the auditing, accreditation and registration of examination centres to ensure proper registration and conduct of national examinations at examination centres. All public colleges offering Report 190/1 and/or NC (V) programmes are audited on a periodic basis to ensure their suitability as examination centres. Private colleges wanting to offer FET College programmes are first inspected, evaluated and accredited by Umalusi to offer college programmes and then inspected and accredited by the Department, before being granted examination centre status. In the event the examination centre is physically relocated from premises approved by the assessment body, such an examination centre is deregistered and after the Department has satisfied itself that the new examination centre meets the requirements, the centre is re- registered. The Department is required to ensure that all centres satisfy the requirements to serve as examination centres.
The Department of Education currently runs examination centres inside and outside of South Africas borders. This is premised on two prescripts; as a response on the South African Constitution imperative of extending access to education as part of redress and also as part of the SADC protocol on sharing development initiatives. The current number of operational accredited examination centres conducting national FET College examinations is as follows: International centres 08 Campuses linked to Public FET Colleges 275 Private FET Colleges 46 Public Technical Schools 02 Correctional Services 22
16
5.1.2 ENROLMENT OF NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS
A total of 278 176 students enrolled for 604 subjects during FET College examinations in 2009. These students wrote at 353 examination centres across South Africa, inclusive of the following foreign examination centres: 1. U-TECH TECHNICAL&COMMERCIAL HIGH SCHOOL in Swaziland 2. NAMIBIAN INSTITUTE OF MINING &TECHNOLOGY in Namibia 3. PIONIER BOYS SCHOOL in Namibia 4. KEETMANSHOOP PRIVATE SCHOOL in Namibia 5. SOUTH AFRICAN EMBASSY IN BERLIN in Germany 6. S.A.EMBASSY IN SAUDI ARABIA (RIYADH) in Saudi Arabia The Department of Higher Education and Training offers examination opportunities for every South African at home and abroad. The table below indicates an increase in the number of students from 2001 to 2009 at FET Colleges. From 2007 the student numbers stayed relatively constant due to the phasing out of Report 191 instructional offerings and the introduction of the NC (V) programmes.

5.1.3 SETTING OF QUESTION PAPERS
Examination panels were appointed for all subjects offered in accordance with National Policy Relating to FET Instructional Programmes, dated 26 October 2001 and the National Policy on the Conduct, Administration and Management of the Assessment of the National Certificate (Vocational) dated 12 September 2007. Contracts of confidentiality were signed by all examiners and internal moderators and all officials involved in the conduct of examinations. Strict security measures were maintained during the setting, moderation, printing, packing and delivery of question papers.
Examination panels were assited by comments from lecturers, chief markers and the reports from the 2008 marking guideline discussions and internal moderators reports from all provinces on the 2008 marking.
A total of 1422 question papers was set, moderated, edited, quality controlled, printed, packed and distributed to examination centres in the 9 provinces, individual South African embassies situated outside South Africa and international centres in Namibia and Swaziland. These question papers were set for Natural Sciences Studies, General Studies and the National Certificate (Vocational).
20
(a) DEVELOPMENT
Panels of examiners developed, evaluated and reviewed question papers for the subjects offered in Natural Sciences Studies, General Studies and the National Certificate (Vocational). The marking guidelines were developed at the same time as the question papers to ensure that all relevant and possible responses were catered for. The setting of these question papers started towards the end of 2008 and concluded in February 2009. (b) FORMATTING Formatting is carried out according to a prescribed format which ensures that the layout of the paper is reader-friendly and appropriately spaced and clear for printing. (c) LANGUAGE EDITING Editors appointed by the DHET edited all the 2009 question papers for the NC (V) examination. This stage of question paper development adds to the quality of question papers. (d) TRANSLATION All question papers were provided in the two official languages of instruction used at FET Colleges, namely English and Afrikaans, with the exception of the two (2) NC(V) isiXhosa question papers set per level. The translated question papers underwent the same processes as the original question papers in terms of quality assurance so that students are not disadvantaged by the quality of the translation. Furthermore, the absence of a comprehensive dictionary of technical terms containing the Afrikaans translation of these terms as used in the curriculum context poses a serious challenge to the translation of question papers. (e) TECHNICAL QUALITY CONTROL
Apart from the moderation processes, the DHET engaged in a technical check of the final question paper where each question paper was proofread and the technical details checked and corrected where necessary before submitting the question paper for printing. The final question papers were endorsed by the completion of a checklist to ensure that the papers were error-free and print-ready. (f) ADAPTATION Question papers for seven (7) NC (V) subjects were adapted for visually impaired candidates in terms of the national policy on inclusive education. 5.1.4 INTERNAL MODERATION To ensure validity and reliability of questions, the criteria used to evaluate question papers, namely coverage of the respective curricula and stipulated moderation criteria including cognitive skills, language use, bias and validity were used by an internal moderator in each question paper. The internal moderators reports reflect that the FET College question papers for 2009 were of an appropriate level and the language was accessible to students.
21
5.1.5 EXTERNAL MODERATION
External moderation of selected N3 and NC (V) Level 2-4 question papers was undertaken by moderators appointed by the external quality assuror, Umalusi. They, in turn, requested refinements where necessary and endorsed the question papers set by the examining panels. The reports received from eternal moderation indicate that three years into the offering of the NC (V) there is still room for improvement. Umalusi moderated a total of 88 NC (V) question papers prior to the conduct of the 2009 examination: Level 2 26, Level 3 30 and Level 4 32. All FET College question papers were printed, stored and packed in a secure in-house printing facility by staff in the National Examinations, Assessment and Measurement Chief Directorate at the Department. The printing facility is characterised by access control, CCTV cameras and security personnel. The question papers were continuously checked prior to and during the printing and packing processes to ensure the quality of the finished product and accuracy of consignments to be dispatched to FET college examination centres. The departmental mainframe system which provides the registration details of students was used to determine the number of question papers to be printed per subject and the number of question papers to be packed per examination centre. Each batch of question papers per subject per examination centre was packed and labelled with the details of the centre, subject and number of question papers to facilitate the packing process.
5.1.6 PRINTING, PACKING AND DISTRIBUTION
The Department made use of a courier company to deliver all consignments of question papers directly to each examination centre. Campus managers and examination coordinators situated at each FET College campus are responsible for the checking, safe storage and control of question papers on receipt and for the duration of the examination writing period. The control list generated by the Department and included with each consignment of question papers is used to check and control the receipt of question papers. Any discrepancies detected upon delivery were reported directly to Department so that the necessary action could be taken to address the discrepancies. During 2009 a total of 31 102 400 A4 images were printed for FET College examinations. 5.1.7 WRITING OF EXAMINATION
The FET College time table was implemented according to the management plan for the sections; NC (V), Natural Sciences Studies and General Studies. The total number of subjects per section is: NC (V) 183 subjects/examinations Natural Sciences Studies 184 Instructional Offerings/examinations General Studies 182 Instructional Offerings/examinations

5.1.8 MARKING PROCESS
All NC (V) Level 4 scripts were marked at one central venue in a block period commencing with memo discussions on 27 December 2009 and ending on 7 December 2009. The examiner for the subject functioned as the chief marker for the process. Campuses sent all their NC (V) Level 4 scripts directly to the marking centre. Markers were required to mark a maximum of 300 scripts (+ _50 scripts per day over the 7-day period) to facilitate the timeous capturing of marks.
All NC (V) Level 2 and 3 scripts were marked at college venues. Colleges, together with their campuses determined which venue(s) would be used as a central marking venue(s) for subjects to be centrally marked and which subjects would be retained and marked at the campus itself on condition that no lecturer marked the scripts of his/her own students. Upon completion of marking, a 10 percent sample of scripts was moderated before the scripts and accompanying mark sheets were submitted to the Department for capturing. (a) STANDARDISATION OF NC (V) MARKING The standardisation of the NC (V) marking process was conducted in accordance with the Policy on the Conduct, Administration and Management of NC (V) Examination. To ensure that the NC (V) marking system produces mark scores that are valid and reliable, all processes including the appointment of competent markers, training of markers, marking process and moderation of students scripts, were conducted according to the policy and were monitored by the Department of Higher Education and Training and the External Quality Assurance Council, Umalusi. Two hundred and eleven (211) markers were appointed to mark scripts based on sixty six (66) question papers. (b) APPOINTMENT OF MARKERS FOR NC (V) LEVEL 4 Vacancies for the marking process were advertised. The applications were verified by the college rectors in collaboration with the subject heads. The DoE officials used the criteria, prescribed by the PAM document, which include experience in teaching NC (V) Level 4, minimum qualifications and experience in marking external examination to appoint suitable markers. The Department of High Education and Training officials appointed chief markers, internal moderators and markers who complied with the criteria set by the PAM document. However, it is recommended in the future that the appointment of these marking officials be staggered so as to ensure that chief markers are involved in the appointment of markers because their views in this process are critical. (c) STANDARD SETTING AND MARKING GUIDELINE DISCUSSION Chief markers, internal moderators, external moderators and markers attended the standard setting, marking guideline discussions and the training session respectively. During this process the DoE officials presented quality assurance processes in order to drive quality in the assessment of students scripts. However, it is recommended that in future pre-marking of 20 scripts should be considered for chief markers and internal moderators before they attend the marking process. This will ensure that chief markers and internal moderators are thoroughly prepared and their inputs on the marking guideline are valuable.
23
The standard setting exercise was followed by the marking guideline discussion in which markers were taken through the paper and the marking guideline question by question. The engagement during the marking guideline discussion resulted in the refinement of the marking guideline into a reliable measurement instrument. The accuracy of this instrument is critical because it is used to make appropriate assessment decisions that are consistent with the students abilities. (d) TRAINING OF MARKERS In addition to the marking guideline discussion, a training session in which common scripts were marked by markers was conducted. Scripts were copied and distributed to all markers. Discrepancies were identified between chief markers and markers and these were debated until consensus was reached. This debate in the allocation of marks enhanced the process. This training was conducted within fundamental subjects namely, Mathematics paper 1 and paper 2, Mathematical Literacy Paper 1 and Paper 2 and Life Orientation. It is recommended that in 2010 this training be extended to all subjects and that the number of scripts for training be increased to give markers a spectrum of students performance. (e) THE MANAGEMENT OF THE MARKING CENTRES Umbumbulu Campus of Coastal FET College was selected by the DoE for the marking of all NC (V) papers level 4 students scripts. The NC (V) levels 2 and 3 scripts were marked internally at college level under the oversight of the college head office. The Umbumbulu marking centre complied with the requirements of the Policy on the Conduct, Administration and Management of NC (V) Examination. The accommodation, administrative, ablution and catering facilities complied with the requirements of the policy. (f) APPROACH TO MARKING The pyramid structure in the NC (V) marking process comprised of chief markers, internal moderators, external moderators and markers. A question marking approach was followed and the chief markers and internal moderators moderated the scripts rigorously. It is recommended that in the 2010 the NC (V) marking process, hierarchical structure must include the senior markers and deputy chief markers to ensure the four levels of moderation which are critical in the quality assurance of marking.
The internal moderator also came a few days after the marking had started and his or her role is to re-mark the scripts and provide feedback to teaching and learning. It recommended that the role of moderators be extended to include analysis of students performance in order to provide feedback to teaching and learning. 5.1.9 CAPTURING OF MARKS Data capturers were responsible for the management and capturing of 3 289 792 marks received from 513 798 students during the 2009 academic year. These marks comprise an examination mark and a year mark for Report 191 students and an ISAT, ICASS and examination mark for NC (V) students.

5.1.10 STANDARDISATION OF RESULTS
The pre-standardisation meeting to analyse the raw examination marks per subject/ instructional offering and make recommendations for adjustments where deemed necessary was held with representatives of the Provincial Education Departments on 17 December 2009. Umalusi, the Council for Quality Assurance in General and Further Education and Training is, in terms of its statutory mandate, responsible for ensuring that the examinations of the current year compare in standard and quality to the examinations of previous years. This function is executed at a meeting that involves representatives from the Department of Education, the provincial education departments, and the Umalusi Council. In order to ensure the credibility of these meetings they are observed by Higher Education South Africa (HESA); South African Qualifications Authority (SAQA) and the teacher unions. The standardisation of the 2009 FET College examination results took place on 18 December 2009. In the majority of subjects, raw marks were accepted. In the remaining subjects, minor adjustments were made either upwards or downwards. The agreed upon adjustments were effected on the resulting system to allow Umalusi an opportunity to check the accuracy of the adjustments prior to making a declaration about the release thereof.
5.1.11 STATISTICAL MODERATION OF ICASS
Once the agreed upon adjustments decided in the standardization meeting had been effected, the ICASS and year marks for the respective FET College offerings were combined with the external assessment mark and statistically moderated at the same time to ensure the relationship between the internal and external assessment components remained within the required parameters. This process took place on 20 and 21 December 2009 so that the combined marks per subject per student could be made available to Umalusi for the Council meeting convened on 21 December 2009 to deliberate and make a pronouncement on the release of the results. Umalusi, the Council for Quality Assurance in General and Further Education and Training, convened on 21 December 2009 and approved the FET College results for final publication. This indicates that the Quality Assurance Council is satisfied that no incident or process compromised the credibility of the 2009 college examinations as a whole. The 2009 results were declared fair and credible on 21 December 2009 and dispatched to all FET College examination centres on 23 December 2009 for release to candidates on 30 December 2009. Dr BE Nzimande, Minister of Higher Education and Training, will officially release the results of the FET College national examinations to the FET Colleges on 30 December 2009 and later to the media and other interested parties.

7. CONCLUSION
Umalusi, the Council for Quality Assurance in General and Further Education and Training, has approved all the 2009 FET College examinations results.
The Department of Higher Education and Training is preparing and will distribute NC (V) examination guidelines in 2010 to ensure that teachers and students are provided with clear guidance to prepare appropriately for future examinations.
The statistical analysis of the examination results indicates that there has been significant achievement in certain subjects and in other subjects there is room for improvement. This report will serve as the basis for the planning of improvement strategies in 2010 at national and college level.
