Reason for revised syllabus

9. Specific aims as per DHET
• To give students insight into the challenges of managing one’s own business.
• To make students familiar with personal management.
• To develop in students an understanding of the positive role of business in
society and to foster in them the correct ethics of doing business.
• To develop in students the skills of planning, organising, staffing and
controlling a business or organisational resources or part of them effectively.
• To introduce students to the complexities of operations management.
• To develop in students the necessary knowledge and skills for preparing a
successful business plan that could be submitted to interested parties.

10. Duration
• Full time: A minimum of six hours per week of which
at least one hour must be for practical, for one
semester.
• Part-time: A minimum of three hours per week for
one semester.

11. Subject evaluation
A semester mark out of 100 is awarded and is compiled from the
theoretical and practical marks of the internal evaluation added
together.

12. Subject evaluation and weightings
• Paper 1 (Closed book) 25% - Modules 1-9.
• Paper 2 (Open book) 75% - Modules 1-9,
4 questions of which 3 are compulsory.
• Weightings according to Blooms Taxonomy.

13. General information
OUP has responded by including localized
and relatable case study scenarios, as well
as providing worksheets and templates,
which assist student familiarity with a
practical approach.
DHET:
“ An interactive, didactic approach should be followed in order to equip students with
the general and particular skills for Entrepreneurship and Business Management in
practice. Practical applications must take place continuously”

14. Syllabus comparison: New vs. Old
• Learning outcomes are less vague and more descriptive towards an outcome.
• The business plan module is anticipated to move to an earlier point in the syllabus.

15. Module weightings

16. Syllabus changes: Modules 1 - 7
• No changes are anticipated to Modules 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6
• Module 5: Revising, presenting and evaluating the business plan is the
old module 9 from the previous syllabus, would most likely be brought
forward.
• Module 7: Physical examination may be removed from steps in selecting
the best qualified employees, to bring the content in line with Section 7 of
the Employment Equity Act, 1998.
• Module 8: We anticipate that the financial ratios will gain more clarity. To
accommodate the variation we include links to additional information.

17. Module 9

18. Alignment to R191 ICASS Guidelines
The new syllabus incorporates the presentation and evaluation of the business plan into Module 5,
thereby making provision for ICASS Assessment 2 - Assignment or Practical task.
• The focus of this assessment will be on Module 5, but knowledge of Modules 1–4 is necessary to
complete Module 5, as well as reference to Module 6-8.
• Module 10 of our textbook provides a template that students can use to write up the business plan for
presentation and evaluation.
• Each heading in the template is linked to sections of the framework discussed in Module 5.
• Students can make a copy of the template, or recreate the template layout in digital format by using
appropriate software applications.
• Electronic template will be available on Learning Zone, free for prescribing lecturers.
• Cross curricular teaching can be promoted with the assistance and support from computer practice
lecturers, when teaching how to create tables in Computer Practice, or using shapes and images to
create business logo.
