The programme provides an opportunity for adults who did not complete their high school education, or failed their matric examination, to obtain their school leaving certificate and thus further their education if they so choose.

Admission to the Senior Certificate

  • a recognised equivalent qualification obtained at NQF Level which requires two official languages
  • Adult learners who are 21 years and older with an incomplete Senior Certificate qualification
  • Adult learners who are 21 years and older with an incomplete National Senior Certificate
  • Only in exceptional cases, out of school youth, who are 18-21 years old and who could not complete their school education due to circumstances beyond their control, as verified by the Head of Department in the Provincial Education Department.
  • Adult candidates who have already obtained a qualification but wish to improve their results/status.
