    we are pleased to inform you about Ukwazi School of Nursing Admission Points Score(APS)-see full details below

    Each learning programme (qualification) offered by the SCHOOL requires a minimum APS (apart from programme specific requirements) for an applicant to become eligible for selection to that programme.  Applicants with the highest APS receive preference in the selection process.

    The table below contains the APS points for subjects achieved in the various SCHOOL leaving certificates and for converting non- National Senior Certificate (“NSC”) qualifications to NSC achievement levels:

    Official IEB NSC Details, Application & Results

    We(zainfo.co.za Team) are pleased as we inform you about IEB NSC Details, Application & Results

    The Independent Examinations Board, or IEB, is a South African independent assessment agency which offers examinations for various client schools, mostly private schools. It is most prominent in setting examinations for the school-leaving National Senior Certificate, or NSC for its client schools

    The IEB provides Umalusi accredited examinations in all subjects recognised in the National Senior Certificate (NSC) for the schools that are registered with it.

    FACTS ABOUT THE IEB NSC:

    The IEB uses the South African National Curriculum which is regulated by the Department of Basic Education.

    • The IEB NSC is quality assured by Umalusi, the Council for Quality Assurance in General and Further Education.
    • The IEB NSC is an internationally benchmarked qualification and is equivalent to Cambridge AS level.

    The IEB produces consistent, reliable results in the Grade 12 National Senior Certificate:

    • Average pass rate is between 97% and 98%
    • Pass with entry to degree study, between 78% and 80%

    A study carried out at the University of Cape Town in 2008 noted that:

    • 25% of first degree graduates at UCT in 2007 came from IEB schools
    • On average over a 3 year period, the throughput rate of learners from IEB schools was 98%

    The IEB assesses the following NSC subjects for all IEB and State schools:

    • All non-official languages i.e. Arabic, French, German, Gujarati, Hebrew, Hindi, Italian, Latin, Modern Greek, Portuguese, Serbian, Spanish, Tamil, Telugu, Urdu, and Mandarin from 2018.
    • Equine Studies
    • Nautical Science
    • Maritime Economics
    • Sports and Exercise Science

    REGISTRATION FOR IEB NSC

    Criteria for Registration

    • Schools must be registered with the provincial department of education before their Grade 12 learners write.
    • Schools must have been through the Umalusi process and provisionally accredited; in cases where the evaluation process is not complete, final acceptance by the IEB will depend on the outcome of the Umalusi process; the IEB will consider provisional acceptance on the basis of a whole school evaluation conducted by other recognised agencies such as IQAA or the CIE in cases where the Umalusi process has been delayed.
    • The National Senior Certificate is a 3 year qualification. Schools must be registered when their first group of Grade 12 learners are in Grade 10 or earlier.
    • There must be at least 10 learners in Grade 10.
    • Teachers must attend the subject conferences as well as cluster group meetings.
    • Schools will need to provide the financial statements of the past 3 years.
    • Schools must have their own internet facilities as e mail is the primary source of communication between the IEB and its client schools.
    • The IEB only deals with full time learners at independent schools.

     

    The School

    • Must be housed in a permanent structure.
    • Must have adequate grounds.
    • Must have water and electricity.
    • Must have sanitation.

     

    Staff Complement

    • There must be an adequate number of qualified teachers.
    • There must be staff stability.

    Resources

    • There must be adequate classrooms.
    • Learners must have textbooks/stationery.
    • There must be laboratory/media facilities. In order to offer subjects like Computer Applications Technology, Information Technology, Hospitality Studies and Consumer Studies, there must be appropriate and adequate facilities for these subjects.

     

    Security

    • The school must have a secure facility for the storage of question papers and answer scripts.
    • The minimum requirement is a safe within a secure room.
    • The school must have an IEB approved video and audio monitoring system.

    Procedure
    The school will be provisionally registered once the registration and accreditation processes have been completed. The registration will only be finalized after the IEB has visited the school.

     

    Please Note

    A school that has been de-registered by any Department of Education as an examination centre will not be registered with the IEB. The IEB reserves the right to refuse to register a school; no correspondence will be entered into.

These subjects, subject to sub (paragraph) regulation (c) of the Conduct of the examination document must be subjects that he or she sat for in the previous end-of-year examination. This option may only be exercised once by a part-time candidate, namely after completion of the National Senior Certificate, that is his or her final end-of-year examination.
    • Register for Life Orientation, (which is) comprising an internally assessed component and a common task of assessment, as one of the two subjects to be registered for the supplementary examination in subregulation (a) of the Conduct of the examination document.

    Ever dreamed of becoming a South African lawyer? As you are reading this post, you are one step closer as I would be sharing the requirements to study law in South Africa.

    Being a lawyer is exciting as it sounds but the laws in SA state that you have to pass through some criteria before becoming one. You need to go to school, get a degree in law, sit for and pass an admissions examination and work for several years.

    List of Requirements to Study Law in South Africa

    The basic requirements on your journey in becoming a lawyer include:

    – Education Requirements:

    According to SA laws, it is necessary and compulsory to complete a four (4) year bachelor’s program and get an LLB degree before becoming a lawyer.

      Gushiphela Senior Secondary School: Info, Address & Contact

    The LLB degree can be obtained from law schools in South Africa. Also, having a foreign degree but in the same field is also accepted.

    Another way to go around this is by obtaining a Bachelor of Commerce (BCom) in Law and then, completing a two year LLB program.

    All of this would take up to five years in contrast to the other method which takes just four (4) years.

    You would need to take courses such as Foundations of South African law, South African private law, constitutional law, criminal law, intellectual property, evidence and African Customary Law.

    – Experience:

    You would need to gather some experience in the field of law before you can start practising on your own.

      University of Zululand Application 2020 – Online and Application Forms

    It is required and necessary to either work at a law firm (private or public) or volunteer at a legal aid organization. This just brings you one step closer to being an attorney. It takes one to five years but it all depends on the school attended and experience garnered so far.

    For those who already have at least five (5) years of relevant legal experience which include experience as a regional prosecutor or magistrate are exempted from the real world experience requirement.

    – Attorney’s Admission Exam:

    This comes after the six months real-world experience has been completed or taking of a legal training course.

    To legally practise law in South Africa, it is required that one must take and pass the Admission’s examinations. This is to test an individual’s knowledge of legal procedures, and so many other aspects of the legal field.

    In conclusion, it is important to note that before all of these requirements stated above, there are some basic necessities you must fulfil and they include:

    • You must be a citizen or legal resident in South Africa.
    • You must at least be 21 years of age before you get the green light to become a lawyer.

    We are pleased as we keep you updated about Business Grants Application 2025-2026 | DTI, SEDA, IDC, NEF

    Ensure that you acquire funding from the DTI, SEDA, NEF, or the IDC, ensure you are complacent with all the prompts they give you in their application forms.

    DTI funding

    DTI refers to the Department of Trade and Industry, which is responsible for providing financing to businesses that qualify for the funds, regardless of their sectors. The DTI funding application forms are available at the DTI website, making it easy for everyone to acquire the loans. There are always questions regarding the DTI grants, in terms of the DTI funding for small businesses. As stated earlier, the DTI funds are accessible to any business that qualifies for the grants, regardless of its sector.

    Dti

    The Department of Trade and Industry (also known as the dti) and its subsidiary agencies are involved in promoting economic development, black economic empowerment, implementing commercial law, promoting and regulating international trade, and consumer protection.

    The dti funding for small businesses is currently obtainable from the following four funds:

    SEDA Technology Programme – the Seda Technology Programme (STP) is responsible for providing both financial and non-financial technology transfer, business incubation and quality support services for small enterprises.

    Agro-Processing Support Scheme (APSS) – Launched in 2017, the Agro-Processing Support Scheme (APSS) incentive scheme is an R1-billion cost-sharing grant fund designed to boost investments in new and existing agro-processing projects.

    Support Programme for Industrial Innovation (SPII) – designed to promote technology development in South Africa’s industry, through the provision of financial assistance for the development of innovative products and/or processes.

    The Aquaculture Development and Enhancement Programme (ADEP) – a cost-sharing incentive program for projects in primary, secondary and ancillary aquaculture activities

    Export Marketing and Investment Assistance Scheme (EMIA) – aims to develop export markets for South African products and services and to recruit new foreign direct investment into the country.

    The Sector Specific Assistance Scheme (SSAS) – a reimbursable cost-sharing grant that will pay for 80% of the costs incurred by (non-profit) export councils, joint action groups and industry associations to provide support to companies to grow the export market for South African goods.

    NEF funding

    NEF is a project enacted by the government to aid in supporting and boosting the participation of the public in business and entrepreneurship. For this to happen, the NEF funding system helps black entrepreneurs to acquire funding for their activities. The goal of the NEF is to assist the black youth, men and women, communities, and businesses to be financially stable in their businesses.

    There are several types of NEF funding. One is the uMnotho Fund, which has sub-divisions in finance such as new venture finance, capital markets, expansion capital, and liquidity and warehousing. The uMnotho Fund is offered to black entrepreneurs who manage their businesses, are looking forward to expanding their existing businesses, or have new business ventures. The approximate funds one can get from this type of NEF funding range from R2 million to R75 million.

    The other type of NEF funding is the Rural and Community Development Fund. This type of government funding aims at promoting sustainable changes in social and economic relations and also developing the rural economy through financial support and sustainability of the enterprises and co-operatives. It also has divisions in the acquisition, which entail new venture capital, start-up/green categories, and expansion capital.

    The third type of NEF funding is the beau Fund. It aims at supporting black entrepreneurs who have a vision of expanding their existing businesses or opening a new businesses. The iMbewu Fund also has subdivisions in entrepreneur finance, franchise finance, and procurement finance. The Fund gives contributions in the form of quasi-equity, debt counseling, and equity finance products.

    The last type of NEF funding is strategic projects. It has subdivisions of empowerment objectives. Strategic projects aim at increasing the participation of blacks in early-stage projects. The projects must have an economic advantage and can offer what the government is looking for in the development sector.

    The NEF application form

    Despite some people being knowledgeable about NEF funding, only a few know the requirements to acquire these funds. To begin with, one must write a complete application form and a thorough proposal that is accompanied by substantial evidence supporting the commercial viability and the financial status and performance of your business. After writing all these, go through them to ensure you have provided only accurate information as required by the NEF funding requirements. If you are satisfied with what is written, go ahead and submit your application to the NEF.

    The NEF then goes through your application form, to assess the validity of the information you have given, and also to determine if you are liable to acquire the funds. The NEF website contains a checklist that one can use when preparing the form since it details what must be included while applying for the funds. If you have not met all these requirements, then you do not qualify to receive the funds. The process of verifying and assessing those liable to acquire the funds can take up to six weeks.

    Similarly, if you have qualifies for the funds, you will only know after three or four months to receive the funding since a lot of time is taken in verifying the financial details and determining the credibility of the business.

    SEFA funding

    SEFA refers to the Small Enterprise Finance Agency, which was founded in 2012. Over the next three years after its formation, SEFA was given R1.4-billion of funds by the South African Government and IDC to support small businesses in South Africa. SEFA offers entrepreneurs the finances to start and grow their businesses. There are various types of SEFA funds which range from term loans, bridging loans, and structured finance. They also range from as low as R500 to R3 million.

    For one to acquire the SEFA loans, one must submit a completed SEFA application form, a comprehensive business plan, and other documentation that meets the SEFA online application requirements.

    SEDA funding

    SEDA refers to the Small Enterprise Development Agency, an agency under the Department of Small Business Development. It was established in December 2004, through the National Small Business Amendment Act, Act 29 of 2004. Most people ask if one requires a SEDA business plan to acquire the grants. Another asked question by the majority of entrepreneurs is ‘how do I apply for the SEDA grants?’ One requires a proposal which must be submitted via the application form. One should follow all the guidelines on how to present the document via the online application platform of SEDA.

    IDC funding

    IDC refers to the Industrial Development Corporation, which aims at offering financial support to businesses looking forward to acquiring capital for buildings, equipment, or even attaining working capital. The Industrial Development Corporation also supports entrepreneurs by providing them with the funds they require for their business expansion. IDC also promotes partnerships between and across industrial organizations within South Africa (SA) and even internationally.

    There are different types of IDC which include development funds, Agro-processing Competitiveness Funds, Green Energy Efficiency Funds, Transformation, and Entrepreneurship schemes, and the Risk Capital Facility Programme. One of the most searched questions online by entrepreneurs is ‘how do I apply for an IDC fund?’ If you are looking to apply for any of the several types of IDC funding mentioned above, then here is what you ought to know and do.

    The IDC aims at giving funds to individuals with potential job opportunities, funds to cater to urban renewal and poverty eradication, and funds to create employment for women and youths. It goes to mean that any project you undertake should have economic viability and sustainability. To apply for the IDC funds, log in to the IDC Online Funding website, click on ‘Online Funding’ and follow the stipulated prompts.

    It is very frustrating for a business entrepreneur trying to look for loans at banks or from family members, only to be declined when their business is on the verge of crumbling. The best solution presently for one looking to start a business, expand their business, or maintain their SME is to apply for various grants and loans. Some of the most substantial and beneficial sources to grant you the credit you require entail IDC, SEDA, NEF, and DTI.

    Official South Africa Netflix-Setup & Free Watch 2025-2026

    We are pleased to inform you about South Africa Netflix 2025-2026 | Setup & Free Watch -read full details below

    NETFLIX has been available in South Africa for a long while and that is not big news to us and you can watch thousands of movies on your TV, mobile device, Play Station and Xbox for as little as $7.99 a month for its basic plan.

    For those of us that might not know, NETFLIX is presently the number one online streaming service for movies and TV series in the world.

    How Much Does NETFLIX Cost in South Africa?

    One issue NETFLIX subscribers may face in South Africa is the cost of internet to the average South African as one would need a lot of data to really get the best of NETFLIX in South Africa.

    NETFLIX comes with 3 affordable monthly plans which are the Basic, Standard and Premium plans and they cost $7.99, $10.99 and $13.99 respectively and with the current Rand to dollar exchange rate of $1 to R14.24 this means that it would cost South Africans R113.78 for the NETFLIX Basic Plan, R156.50 for the NETFLIX Standard Plan and R199.22 for the NETFLIX Premium Plan respectively.

    read also:

    1. Basic Plan

    The basic plan costs $7.99 and lasts for one month. With this plan, you can only watch your movies on one screen at a time. Also, the basic plan does not allow Netflix users to watch movies in HD or Ultra HD.

    2. Standard Plan

    The standard plan costs $10.99 and like the basic plan also lasts for one month. Unlike the basic plan, you can watch your movies on two screens at the same time with the standard plan. The downside is that it also does not also allow you to watch movies in HD or ultra HD.

    3. Premium Plan

    The premium plan currently costs $13.99 and also lasts for one month. Unlike the basic and standard plans, the premium plan, allows you to watch your movies on as many as four screens at the same time. Also, with this plan, you can watch your movies in HD and Ultra HD.

    From the image below as you can see, the different packages come with its own distinct features like the number of screens you can watch NETFLIX on with the same account and the High Definition option. Note that HD streaming would consume your data bundle quickly as it requires more bandwidth to serve you crisp clear quality videos. If you are having a get-together and watching movies make sure you get an audiovisual rental for better sound quality.

    Would NETFLIX Work With Slow Internet Connectivity in South Africa?

    I would advise making use of your 4G LTE network on any of their plans in order to enjoy unstable streaming of NETFLIX videos and if you have slow connectivity issues, they always find a way of tethering the speed of your connection which they refer to as “Fair Usage Policy on their claimed unlimited plans”.

    NETFLIX has a recommended download speed for playing movies and TV shows on their service which is listed below.

    0.5 Megabits per second – Required broadband connection speed.
    1.5 Megabits per second – Recommended broadband connection speed.
    3.0 Megabits per second – Recommended for SD quality.

    Unlike other regular streaming services available out there that buffers on slow internet connection, NETFLIX has a way of determining your connection speed and serves you the best quality that would hardly buffer.

    How to Connect NETFLIX to Your TV in South Africa

    You can stream NETFLIX on several Devices but just imagine the fun of watching it on your TV connected to your sound system. With the availability of Smart TVs all over, you can just easily connect your Smart TV to your Wi-Fi Modem but if you do not have a Smart TV you could make use of your personal laptop computer and connect your laptop to your TV via the HDMI cable.

    Also if you do have a Play Station or Nintendo gaming device, you can connect them to the internet and connect your gaming machine to your TV to enjoy the available NETFLIX services.

    There are also smartphones that you can connect directly to your TV using the right cables if you wanna use your phone to stream.

    How to Pay For NETFLIX in South Africa

    To pay for NETFLIX South Africa you can simply use your credit or debit card to make payment (Master Card and Visa Card) or you could also make use of a PayPal account to make payment on NETFLIX.

    Note that Netflix offers a free month of service for new customers.* Sign up for your trial offer and instantly access the entire Netflix catalog of TV shows and movies. After the free trial month, you can then decide to cancel your account or become a Netflix member.. You would need to register and provide payment details before you can enjoy the free one month.
