To assist schools and teachers to implement curriculum differentiation strategies, the Department of Education developed Guidelines for Responding to Learner Diversity in the Classroom through the National Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statements of 2011.

Further Documents which can serve as resources are:

Guidelines for Inclusive Learning Programmes in 2005.

These guidelines were reviewed and the Guidelines for Inclusive Teaching and Learning were completed by the Department of Basic Education in 2010 to inform the CAPS.

A summary of what Curriculum Differentiation is all about can be found in a Fact Sheet For Teachers.

Guidelines for responding to  Learner Diversity in the Classroom through the Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statements (CAPS), September 2011
