South African School Gradebook — NSC Level 1–7 with APS Calculation and Pass Matrix
South Africa's National Senior Certificate (NSC) maps percentage marks to a 7-level Achievement Level scale (Level 1–7) and uses an Admission Points Score (APS) from the best six non-Life Orientation subjects for university admission. OpenEduCat enforces the 25/75 SBA/examination split, computes APS automatically, evaluates the Bachelor's/Diploma/Higher Certificate/NSC pass matrix, and generates trilingual transcript PDFs.

| Note | Points / Plage | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Level 7 — Outstanding Achievement | 80–100% | APS = 7. Highest performance band. Required for admission to highly competitive university programmes such as medicine, law, and engineering at South African universities. |
| Level 6 — Meritorious Achievement | 70–79% | APS = 6. Strong performance. Sufficient for most university programmes requiring Bachelor's pass entry. |
| Level 5 — Substantial Achievement | 60–69% | APS = 5. Solid performance. Bachelor's pass threshold for most subjects is Level 4 or 5 (40% or 50%). |
| Level 4 — Adequate Achievement | 50–59% | APS = 4. Adequate. Many university entry requirements specify Level 4 (≥50%) for specific subjects. |
| Level 3 — Moderate Achievement | 40–49% | APS = 3. Moderate performance. Eligible for Diploma pass (if specific subject minimums met). Below Bachelor's pass threshold for most subjects. |
| Level 2 — Elementary Achievement | 30–39% | APS = 2. Elementary. Eligible for Higher Certificate pass (if language and mathematics minimums met). |
| Level 1 — Not Achieved | 0–29% | APS = 0. Not achieved. Below the pass threshold in every certification category. Subject must be retaken. |
Ce que le Module South Africa Fait
Fonctionnalités spécifiques au pays qui vont au-delà du moteur de base du carnet de notes.
APS Calculator (Best-6 Non-LO Subjects)
The Admission Points Score sums Achievement Levels from the best six subjects excluding Life Orientation. OpenEduCat computes APS automatically throughout the year, giving students and counsellors early visibility into university admission eligibility. APS is displayed on the student record alongside current subject grades.
25/75 SBA/Examination Split Enforcement
NSC stipulates that School-Based Assessment (SBA) contributes 25% and the final examination contributes 75% to the subject total. The gradebook enforces this weighting, computing the promotion mark automatically from both components when examination results are entered.
Bachelor's/Diploma/Higher Certificate Pass Matrix
NSC certification involves three pass categories with different subject-level minimums. OpenEduCat evaluates the full matrix: Bachelor's pass (≥40% in 4 designated subjects including Home Language ≥40%), Diploma pass (≥40% in 4 subjects including Language ≥40%), and Higher Certificate pass (≥40% in Home Language + Maths/Maths Literacy ≥30%).
Life Orientation Exclusion from APS
Life Orientation is excluded from the APS calculation by regulation. The system automatically excludes LO-tagged subjects from APS computation while retaining LO marks for the NSC pass matrix where LO does count (with 25% maximum capping).
Trilingual Transcript Support
South African schools can generate transcripts with headings in English, Afrikaans, or isiZulu depending on the language of instruction. Subject names are listed in the home language of instruction alongside their English equivalents.
Politique de Reprise d'Examen
NSC Supplementary and Repeat Examinations
Students who narrowly fail the NSC may qualify for supplementary examinations in selected subjects (typically those scoring 30–39% in one or two subjects). Students who fail the full NSC may repeat the Grade 12 year. OpenEduCat tracks supplementary exam results and recalculates the pass matrix and APS with the improved marks.
