Purpose •To enable teachers to cover the essential core content /skills including the fundamentals](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052617/60b2658d951e9b7caf1d2758/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
1. Background• COVID 19 led to losses in teaching and learning time due
to:
− the lockdown period and phased reopening of schools,
− alternating time tabling models and
− the related health and safety protocols.
• Furthermore, the revision of the school calendar and
intermittent closure of many schools negatively impacted on
the implementation of the revised 2020 ATPs as
envisioned.
![Page 4: 2021 REVISED CURRICULUM AND ASSESSMENT PLANS...curriculum content and assessment. 4. Purpose •To enable teachers to cover the essential core content /skills including the fundamentals](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052617/60b2658d951e9b7caf1d2758/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
1. Background cont.
• To mediate the impact and support teachers in managing
teaching, assessment and learning within the reduced
time, the DBE in 2020 issued :
− Circular S2 of 2020 which released the revised and trimmed ATPs
for implementation in 2020
− Circular S3 that outlined the minimum concepts, content and
skills that are core per grade and per subject
− NA Circular 02, 03 and 07 of 2020 that talk to
assessment.
![Page 5: 2021 REVISED CURRICULUM AND ASSESSMENT PLANS...curriculum content and assessment. 4. Purpose •To enable teachers to cover the essential core content /skills including the fundamentals](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052617/60b2658d951e9b7caf1d2758/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
2. Principles
• Manage the learning losses and the possible loss of teaching
time;
• Learning losses defined as those Learning Outcomes
(content, skills & competencies, values & attitudes) as
stated in the Revised ATPs not achieved during the 2020
school year.
• The 2021 ATPs will be based on the revised ATPs developed
in 2020
• Fundamental and core topics are retained in the
Recovery ATPs
![Page 6: 2021 REVISED CURRICULUM AND ASSESSMENT PLANS...curriculum content and assessment. 4. Purpose •To enable teachers to cover the essential core content /skills including the fundamentals](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052617/60b2658d951e9b7caf1d2758/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
2. Principles, cont. • Create opportunities through adjusted ATPs to strengthen
pre-knowledge, consolidation, revision, and deeper learning.
• Entrench assessment for learning as a Pedagogical Approach to address the learning losses
• The 2021 Recovery ATPs maintains the use of current LTSM and resources already available in the system.
• The Recovery ATPs are aligned to the:− 2021 School calendar− Abridged Section 4 of CAPS with some alterations− Curriculum and assessment principles as prescribed in
the CAPS policy for Mathematics

topics• Topics that are repetitive have been merged and dealt with
once, but in depth
• Some topics that will be dealt with in the next grade with
little or no progression have been left out
• Some topics have been moved from one term to the next
due to the following reasons:
⁻ Lack of time in the term
⁻ To incorporate other topics dealt with

Summary: Reorganisation of content
topics
• Topics that link with each other have been dealt with, one after the other
• Hours in some topics have been increased to allow the topic to be taught in depth
• Numbers, Operations and Relationships to be dealt with before all other topics since they form part of almost every topic
• Solving problems in context to be done AGAIN in Term 4 using ALL operations with Whole numbers, common fractions and decimal fractions where applicable.
