Overview of product
The product has been adapted to enable learners to succeed in either the CAPS or the IEB NSC (National Senior Certificate) examinations and is designed to aid seasoned home educators in completing the CAPS compliant year work assessment section of the various grades for each learner.
It offers the opportunity for home-educated learners to self-assess their progress through the South African CAPS curriculum (year work), as required both by good educational practice and by law. Homeschooling parents are expected to make use of assessments that have been set by suitably qualified and experienced educators when compiling the annual portfolio of work for each learner.
The portfolio of work provides the necessary measurement of mastery of the required skills that is fundamental to education.
Record of such completed and marked assessments must be kept by the parent as these may be required by a duly authorised person from the Department of Basic Education.
A senior school EXPRESS learner who wishes to qualify for a Brainline-accredited year-end report needs to enrol both the grade-appropriate EXPRESS product and the corresponding Report-2-Go product.
The REPORT-2-GO option includes:
- Early access to the compulsory Oral Assessments that need to be completed and submitted for marking by Brainline, in both the selected Home Language and First Additional Language;
- Early access to the compulsory PATs that need to be completed and submitted for marking by Brainline in relevant subjects;

- A fixed year-end examination timetable for the learner’s chosen subjects which:
- must be written on the prescribed dates and times;

- will be marked by Brainline
- A Brainline-accredited year-end Report-2-Go report. The report is composed of marks from the compulsory
- Oral assessments;
- PATs in relevant subjects; and
- year-end exams which, depending on the subject (e.g. Computer Application Technology), may include a practical examination all of which will be marked by Brainline.
The senior school EXPRESS product includes:
