policies that guide teaching and learning in a school. To
complete Assignment 03, you need to access the policy

Education District ofÏce. Use the document you

the three policies that were developed to transform
Education in South Africa before the introduction of CAPS
3X2 (06).
To answer this question, we focus on the key educational policies introduced in
South Africa before the implementation of the Curriculum and Assessment
Policy Statement (CAPS), which aimed to transform education after apartheid.
Three policies that were developed to transform education in South Africa
before the introduction of CAPS:
1. Revised National Curriculum Statement (RNCS) – Grades R-9 (2002)
o This policy replaced Curriculum 2005 and aimed to simplify and
strengthen the outcomes-based approach. It focused on improving
content clarity and ensuring better implementation in schools.
2. Curriculum 2005 (C2005)
o Introduced in 1997, Curriculum 2005 was the first post-apartheid
curriculum based on Outcomes-Based Education (OBE). It aimed to
promote critical thinking, learner-centredness, and social justice, but
faced challenges in implementation due to its complexity and lack of
teacher training.
3. National Curriculum Statement (NCS) – Grades 10-12 (2004)
o This policy provided curriculum guidelines for the Further Education
and Training (FET) phase. It continued the outcomes-based approach
and aimed to prepare learners for higher education, the workplace, and
adult life.
