Dear Dr Calitz

Re : MODERATORS RECOMMENDATIONS

The Mpumalanga Deportment of Education would like to put it on record and also request SAFCERT to consider the Moderators recommendations in relation to the following subjects for the 1998 November Exan,:

• Biology HG & SG
• History HG & SG
• Afrikoans 2^nd Language HG & SG
• Geography HG & SG

This request is informed by the following:

• That at the re-orgiving meeting held on 22 April 1999, an impression was created by the SAFCERT delegation that moderators recommendations ore usually not considered for adjustments of marks.
• Upon coming back to Mpumalanga the officials mode comparisons with what has been the. practice, pattern and presidency for 1996 ® 1997 it is discovered that in the two years in question moderators recommendations were fully considered and implemented.

The department would therefore wish to register this points and further request a meeting to discuss the above matter.

Kind regards,
