Overview
Junior Secondary School Curriculum
The CBC Junior Secondary School curriculum in Kenya, which encompasses Grades 7 to 9, is designed to build on the competencies developed in primary education while preparing students for further education and career pathways. This stage focuses on deepening students’ knowledge and skills across various subjects and fostering critical thinking, problem-solving, and practical application of knowledge.
Key Features:
Learner-Centered Approach: Emphasizes personalized learning to cater to individual strengths and interests, promoting active participation and engagement.
Integrated Learning: Subjects are organized into thematic areas, encouraging interdisciplinary connections and real-world application of knowledge.
Competency Development: Focuses on developing competencies in areas such as communication, collaboration, critical thinking, and digital literacy, alongside traditional academic subjects.
Practical Skills: Includes practical subjects and activities that enhance hands-on skills, preparing students for future career paths or further studies.
Assessment: Continuous and formative assessments are used to monitor progress and provide feedback, supporting student development throughout the learning process.
Overall, the Junior Secondary curriculum aims to provide a well-rounded education that prepares students for the challenges of senior secondary education and the evolving demands of the job market.
The CBC Junior Secondary School program in Kenya is structured into three key stages, corresponding to Grades 7 through 9. Here are the stages:
Grade 7:

Grade 8:

- Curriculum: Builds upon Grade 7 knowledge, with a greater emphasis on competency development, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.
Grade 9:
- Focus: Preparation for the transition to Senior Secondary education. Students consolidate their learning and may begin to specialize in areas of interest.
- Curriculum: Includes a comprehensive review of the subjects covered in earlier grades, with an emphasis on preparing for national assessments and making informed choices for future educational and career paths.
Each stage is designed to progressively build students’ knowledge, skills, and competencies, ensuring they are well-prepared for the next level of education and future challenges.
