Grade 3 Homeschool Assessment — End of Foundation Phase
A CAPS-aligned assessment for your Grade 3 homeschooler, marked by hand by a SACE-registered educator with 19+ years' experience — with a written report back within a week.
✓ SACE-registered ✓ 19+ years' experience ✓ Marked by hand, not auto-graded ✓ From R50
Who this is for
You're homeschooling a child in Grade 3 — the end of the Foundation Phase — and you want a real, CAPS-benchmarked picture of where they stand before moving into Grade 4. Whether you're keeping records for your own peace of mind or building the kind of progress documentation South African home-education registration expects, this gives you something solid: not a worksheet you mark yourself, but an independent, professionally marked assessment.
Why an end-of-phase assessment matters
Grade 3 is the end of the Foundation Phase under South Africa's schooling structure — a natural checkpoint, not an arbitrary one. It's the moment to find out, clearly, whether your child is ready for the jump into Grade 4 content, and where they might need extra focus first. An outside, professionally marked assessment tells you things your own day-to-day teaching can't: how your child performs without you coaching them through it, benchmarked against the same standard every South African Grade 3 learner is measured against.
What's included
Eight Grade 3 assessments, bought individually so you only pay for what you need — or save R76 with a five-assessment bundle. Every assessment is a print-ready PDF with QR codes built in — your child scans them to listen to a story or record a voice note for our assessors, so it doesn't feel like a formal exam.

Do I need to buy all eight subjects?
No — buy only the subjects you need, or save R76 with one of the five-assessment Grade 3 bundles.
We don't follow CAPS — can we still use this?
Yes. It's benchmarked against CAPS so you get a reliable national standard to compare against, even on a different curriculum.
How long does marking take?
About a week from when we receive your child's completed assessment.
Is this the same as registering for home education?
No — this is an academic assessment, not the registration process itself. See our full FAQ for what registration involves.
What if my child needs Grade 6 instead?
See our Grade 6 assessment.
