Comments on November Grade 11 (P2)
Any comments on the above-mentioned paper or clarity on the memorandum? The memo for this paper is available here.
Some teachers did gold only and not iron, in line with the work schedule that expects only ONE of the minerals. Hence, the decision is to have the same total for the paper in all Free State schools.
It is unfortunate that those teachers have not consulted the examination guidelines where it is stated that gold AND iron must be done. The clashing information between the documents will be corrected as well.
Today is the last physical science paper for our grade 11 learners for 2015! Best wishes to all of them.
ReplyDeleteWhy must we not mark question 10?
