Curriculum

What is the NSC (Matric)?

The National Senior Certificate (NSC), widely known as Matric, is the school-leaving qualification awarded at the end of Grade 12 in South Africa. It is based on the CAPS curriculum, issued after completing the FET phase (Grades 10–12), and results are a key factor in university, diploma and further study applications.

MyIT's NSC/Matric tutoring is for Grade 12 learners working towards their final exams, as well as learners in earlier grades building towards Matric, with an online Matric tutor matched to your subjects and timeline.

To achieve the NSC, learners take seven subjects: two languages (one at Home Language level), Mathematics or Mathematics Literacy, Life Orientation, and three further subjects of their choice — commonly including Physical Sciences, Life Sciences and Physics. MyIT tutors support the full range of NSC/Matric subjects, including Mathematics, the Sciences and languages; tell us what you're studying and we'll match a suitable tutor.

Some independent schools award the IEB National Senior Certificate instead of the DBE (state) NSC — both are recognised NSC qualifications, but set by different examining bodies. If that applies to you, see our IEB tutoring page.
