KNYSNA NEWS - Oakhill Prep Grade 3s completed the International Benchmark Tests in English, mathematics and science towards the end of last year, and the results have recently been released showing that these learners have performed well above both the national and the international averages.
The analysis shows that the overall scores are between 20 to 30-plus points above the norms in all three of these subject areas.
All of the 25 Grade 3s participated in the benchmarking process and Oakhill is very proud to have had eight children receive certificates of high distinction and six children with certificates of distinction. These certificates are awarded to those who have achieved at the highest percentile in the test they have written.
The certificate distribution is as follows: certificates of high distinction – 1 for English, 3 for maths and 4 for science; and certificates of distinction – 1 for English, 4 for maths and 1 for Science.
