Common Questions About CAPS
CAPS (Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement) is the national curriculum framework used in all South African public schools. It provides a single, comprehensive, and concise policy document for each subject, specifying exactly what teachers should teach and assess in each grade and term.
iRainbow's content is structured according to the CAPS term planner for each subject and grade. Every video lesson, exercise, and assessment directly corresponds to what your child is learning in class, making it easy to keep up or study ahead.
Most private schools in South Africa follow either CAPS or the IEB curriculum. Some private schools use CAPS as their base and supplement with additional content. iRainbow covers both CAPS and IEB to support learners regardless of which curriculum their school follows.
CAPS uses a combination of School-Based Assessment (SBA), which includes assignments, tests, projects, and practical work throughout the year, and end-of-year examinations. In Grade 12, the final mark combines SBA (25%) and the National Senior Certificate examination (75%).
