1. PROBLEM STATEMENT

• The Basic Education sector has recorded tremendous improvement in access, redress and equity.

• Gradual signs of improvement in areas of quality and efficiency are evident, but a lot still needs to be done.

• Learning outcomes have shown an upward trend in the national, regional and international tests.

• The National Development Plan acknowledges that targets in the Action Plan 2014 are stretched, but have increased them even further.

• The NSLA must ensure that the sector delivers all the aforementioned targets.

6. NSLA

40

BACKGROUND• The Teacher Development and Curriculum Development

(TDCM) workshop of 26-28 January 2015 focused on NSLA.

• The revised NSLA was discussed at HEDCOM of 9th February 2015 and CEM of 12-13 March 2015.

• Both HEDCOM and CEM endorsed the dates for the submission of the integrated NLSA Reports.

• HEDCOM requested a further extension of two weeks to input into the reporting template.

• All provinces were reminded to provide feedback.

• Feedback was received from Western Cape (written) and Mpumalanga (verbal).

41

BACKGROUND (Cont.)

• Western Cape proposed the deletion of a number of activities and performance indicators and the addition of new indicators.

• Mpumalanga supported the new strengthened NSLA and proposed that the quarterly reports be reduced to three reports per annum. (Review 4th Quarter)

42

7. 2015 REWORKED NSLA

43

PURPOSE OF THE NSLA

• The Department of Basic Education (DBE) has updated and strengthened the 2015 NSLA Integrated Framework in order to address all issues that contribute to under-performance in the system and revised the reporting tool which informs provincial and district activities and programmes to improve overall learner performance in line with Action Plan to 2019 – Toward Schooling 2030.

44

HEDCOM RECOMMENDATIONS

The revised 2015 NSLA was discussed by HEDCOM on 9th February 2015.

• The recommendations made included: – reflecting a differentiated approach in providing

support to under-performing provinces, districts and schools; High enrolment subjects;

– Learners with special education needs;– Girl learners in MST subjects; – Addressing weaknesses and gaps provided in the

subject profiles; and– Support for repeating and progressed learners in all

grades.Subsequently HEDCOM recommendations were infused in the document.

45

2015 STRENGTHENED NSLA

• Recommendations by WCED were carefully considered by the DBE and based on the strength of the provincial motivation provided, either accepted, rejected or amended.

• Verbal input from Mpumalanga is likely to result in an amended and shortened quarter 4 report focusing on support for learners writing the 2016 supplementary examination and progressed learners.

46

2015 STRENGTHENED NSLA (Cont.)

The changes made to the NSLA are indicated under the following headings:– Revised sections of the NSLA to ensure clear

accountability;– Detailed Performance Indicators to improve

accurate reporting;– Making the framework grade and phase specific

with a special focus on Senior Phase aligned to the interventions;

– Specific focus on Progressed learners and Retained learners;

– Inclusion of the 1+4 Mathematics project;– Including measuring the impact of interventions; and– Differentiated approach to performance and under-

performance.

NSLA QUARTER 1: POWER - POINT PROGRESS REPORT

At TDCM meeting ( 8 – 10 April) Provinces were expected to:• Give a brief outline on what the provincial improvement

plan covers.• What are the identified weaknesses from 2014 and how

are they addressed?• What are the key elements of the differentiated approach

of the 2015 plan?• How are the progressed and repeating learners monitored

and supported?• How does tracking learner performance inform subsequent

interventions?• Which subjects are going to mitigate the negative effects of

the implementation of the withdrawal of the language compensation?

• What is the profile of your 2015 class?

61

NSLA QUARTER 1: PROGRESS REPORT (Cont.)

• Eight (8) of the provinces presented (Eastern Cape was not present and did not send a report); however, the majority did not follow the guidelines provided.
