EVIDENCE-BASED REPORT (EBR)

Purpose of EBR • The Evidence Based Report is an all -encompassing report to present systemic programmes and interventions over and above the normal teaching and learning programmes that were employed by the DBE and Provinces since 2014 when the Class of 2016 cohort started Grade 10 to bring about improvements in learner performance.

Focus of EBR • The focus in all these interventions will be the direct or indirect impact of these interventions on the Class of 2016. • There has been no standardised assessment across all provinces during these intervals which could be used as a valid indicator of improvement in learner performance. • Therefore, the actual impact of the interventions would be measured and reported in terms of improved learner performance in the 2016 NSC quarterly
