Volmink said that besides those implicated in the maths paper 2 and physical science paper 2 leaks, 893 candidates in four provinces were implicated in group copying. Umalusi’s assessment standards committee left the marks unchanged in 48 of the 65 subjects presented by the department for standardisation.

Volmink said the standardisation of marks is “aimed to achieve equivalence of the standard of exams across years, subjects and assessment bodies and to deliver a relatively constant product to the market”.
