Getting your final matric exam results is the final step before you graduate from high school and receive your matric certificate. Wondering how and where to get your 2023 matric results? The team at FundiConnect has got you covered.

2023 Matric Results Release Date

The Department of Education has announced that the 2023 matric results will be available to candidates on 19 January 2024. If, for any reason, you can't find your results, don't panic. Your school will get in touch with you to sort things out.

How and Where to Check Your 2023 Matric Results

There are various ways to check your matric results for those who graduated in 2023. Whether you prefer to check your results online or are eager to grab your results from your local newspaper—here’s how and where to check your 2023 matric results:

3. Online Check

If you attended a South African public school, the best way to check your results is by visiting the Department of Education's website. Navigate to the "2023 SC Examination Results" section, and enter your exam number, home language, and personal information to access your complete matric results. Private school students should check on the IEB website, and both private and public school learners can use the News24 matric results portal.

4. Newspaper Check

You can find your matric results in local newspapers like The Rapport, The Argus, and The Star on 19 January 2024. The newspapers will only indicate whether you passed and the symbol representing your performance.

5. High School Release

Your high school will release your results on 20 January 2024, a day after the Department of Education. Remember, this document is not your official matric certificate; that will be provided a few months later.

6. Cell Phone Check with MatricsMate

For a convenient option, use the MatricsMate service provided by the Department of Education and SABC Education. Download the MatricsMate app, register via SMS or USSD service, and receive your results instantly when they are out.

What Should I Do After I Get My 2023 Matric Results?

After obtaining your 2023 matric results, exercise patience as your official matric certificate will take a few months to prepare. Meanwhile, start exploring the institutions you're interested in applying to, such as universities, technical schools, TVET colleges, or private colleges. Check the application deadlines for the 2024 academic year to ensure you don't miss out.
