The Annual National Assessments (ANA)


1. The Annual National Assessments (ANA) are scheduled to be written from
16 to 19 September 2014 by all ordinary public schools, state subsidised independent
schools and certain special schools.
2. The Department of Basic Education (DBE) has developed assessment guidelines for each
grade and subject (Language and Mathematics) that outline the minimum curriculum
content that must be covered by all learners prior to the writing of the tests.
3. The assessment guidelines set the scope of work that should be covered by all learners prior
to the writing of the tests for each grade and subject.
The 2014 assessment guidelines have
been designed in line with the Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statements (CAPS).
 4. The tests will cover work that is prescribed for the first three terms of the school year. It is
important to note that the ANA 2014 assessment guidelines do not imply that the delimited
scopes are all that should be taught and learnt during the school year.
5. Teachers are expected to use these assessment guidelines together with other resources for
their teaching and assessment programmes.
