Answer 1

A National Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement (CAPS) is a single, comprehensive, and concise policy document developed by the Department of Basic Education for all courses specified in the National Curriculum Statement for Grades R through 12. CAPS provides teachers with precise instructions on what they should teach and how to assess their students.

The main goal of CAPS is to relieve instructors of administrative burdens while still ensuring consistency and direction in the classroom. Subject-specific goals, skills, content-area concentration, and weighting are all part of the teaching and learning process.
