3. The SBA activities of private candidates must be monitored by tutors in the institution through
which they register.

4. Private candidates must submit their own work, which must be validated by their tutors.

5. The name, school, and territory of the identified teacher or tutor should be submitted to the
Council on registration for the subject.

 REGULATIONS FOR RESIT CANDIDATES

1. SBA scores can be carried forward only ONCE and only during the year immediately following

a moderated SBA score, the Council will continue to indicate on the preliminary results if a
candidate’s moderated SBA score is less than 50% in a particular subject. Candidates re-using
SBA scores should register as “Re-sit candidates” and must provide the previous candidate
number when registering.
