NOTE No new books will be printed in Grade 7 the educator will be required to get content from the previous learning areas book supplied in 2023.
Pre-primary learners do n’t have teaching learning materials e.g text books
Where is computer studies? It is wrong to put Agriculture with homescience.
Where is subject allocation and distribution in a week for upper grades
What topics should be taught and or left out if no new books would be published for the case of merged learning areas?
What topics should be taught and or left out if no new books would be published for the case of merged learning areas?
I dont see any change of subjects here, all subjects that seem removed, have been merged with others. The content is still the same.
Change is inevitable, but, this is applicable when change is aimed at creating a solution.
Thanks for the update.
For grades 4 to 6,give the number of lessons per week.
