Learners must register with their exam number on the platform of their choice to access their results. You must know that receiving Matric results online doesn’t mean you should not fetch your statement of results from your school where you wrote your exams. And again registering to receive your Matric results online is not compulsory. Don’t be confused. They are just doing this to make it easier for you to see your results in case you will fetch your statement of results a bit late from your school or you couldn’t check your results from a newspaper.
2023 Matric exam results: Why the long wait?
Spokesperson Elijah Mhlanga explained the department is currently still in the process of collecting data from the various marking centres across the country.
According to an eNCA report, the next step would be for the department to meet with education quality assurance body Umalusi to ensure that the marking process and capturing of results have been free of mistakes.
Earlier this year, Umalusi announced that about 921 000 candidates were going to write the National Senior Certificate (NSC) examinations, and 15 211 matriculants the Independent Examinations Board (IEB) exams.
