The Western Cape Department of Education said the competency testing for National Senior Certificate markers is a way to improve quality throughout the education system in the province.

Ministerial Spokesperson Bronagh Casey said the test is to ensure that there is the highest possible standard of marking in these examinations. 

Casey said the Western Cape is the only province to conduct the testing of markers and have already done the testing process for 2014.

“In the last two weeks potential markers have participated in the competency testing process set by examinators and moderators appointed by the WCED” Casey added.

Ministerial Spokesperson Bronagh Casey said the test asses the content knowledge of the applicant in their particular subject, their application of knowledge and skills and their making ability.
