Matric maths paper was fair

By Nomava Nobumba

The education quality assurance body Umalusi says the matric maths paper was fair.

Umalusi chairperson John Volmink reacted to reports that around 80-percent of matriculants could fail maths if the marks were not adjusted.

Umalusi says an adjustment will only be made if the maths marks are unacceptably low compared to last year's.

The results will be assessed next week. Any adjustment will not affect the release of matric results on the 7th of next month.
