Education for all
The review of the Integrated Science syllabus was necessitated by the need to provide a curriculum that is interrelated and interconnected at all the levels of the education system in order to provide quality education. It is envisaged that it will transmit to the young learners the knowledge, skills, positive values and attitudes that allow them to live and grow into resourceful and useful members of their communities. Learners will therefore be provided with opportunities and experiences necessary for the development of mental, physical, emotional, social and hence realise their potentials. The syllabus will also provide young learners an opportunity to do hands-on, minds-on and hearts-on activities through manipulation of objects and models, interaction with nature through observation of living and non-living things in their environment as is required in the field of science. It will enhance children’s readiness for learning science and as a foundation for lifelong learning.
This syllabus has incorporated the emerging needs of society (cross cutting issues) such as sexuality education, environment, gender, HIV and AIDS, Nutrition and Health, in order to ensure children’s safety and equip them with basic knowledge, essential skills, values and develop positive attitudes needed for their progression in the field of science and the world of work.
It is hoped that this syllabus will encourage learners to be creative, problem solvers and critical thinkers and hence make science more meaningful enjoyable and contribute to the caring of their immediate environment.
It is also my sincere hope that this syllabus will encourage teachers to do science with their learners as opposed to teaching science to them.
