Curriculum expectations for
children‟s learning and
development at particular points
in primary education
10.
In basic education, learning outcomes are differentiated for different segments (stages) of the phase. They
are set at the end of Grade 2 (age nine) and Grade 5 (age 12).
As examples, we include below the objectives and good practice example for the „interaction‟ area (part of
mother tongue and literature) of the section of content and the description of good performance in
interaction at the end of Grade 5. (FNBE, 2004)
