Learners will complete the following prescribed subjects:

  1. English Home Language
  2. Afrikaans First Additional Language
  3. Life Orientation
  4. Mathematics
  5. Natural Sciences
  6. Social Sciences
  7. Creative Arts

Furthermore, learners will be allocated to TWO of the three Vocational Occupation Curriculum subjects, viz:

  1. Civil Technology (VOC)
  2. Electrical Technology (VOC)
  3. Mechanical Technology (VOC)

Learners will then be given an opportunity to select their Grade 10 subjects upon successfully completing Grade 9. This is usually done in the third quarter of the year.

Learners are prescribed the following subjects in the FET phase:

  1. English Home Language
  2. Afrikaans First Additional Language
  3. Life Orientation
  4. Engineering Graphics & Design

Learners are then required to choose ONE of the following combination, namely:

  1. COMBO A – Mathematics & Physical Sciences
  2. COMBO B – Technical Mathematics & Technical Sciences

Upon choosing their preferred combo, learners then choose ONE specialist technical subject that will be done all the way up to Grade 12. The following technical subjects are available:

  1. Civil Technology (Construction)
  2. Civil Technology (Woodworking)
  3. Electrical Technology (Electronics)
  4. Electrical Technology (Power Systems)
  5. Mechanical Technology (Automotive)
  6. Mechanical Technology (Fitting & Machining)
  7. Mechanical Technology (Welding & Metalwork)

It is important to highlight to parents and learners that there is no ‘easy’ technical subject. All our technical subjects are integrated with the 6 core subjects.

Learners have the option of taking an additional subject, Computer Applications Technology (CAT) offered from Grade 10 up to Grade 12. Please note that CAT classes and practicals are done afterschool usually up to 4 pm.
