Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>The Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education has commenced reviewing the Competence-Based Curriculum as the current seven-year cycle is coming to an end this year.<\/p>\n

This was revealed by the permanent secretary in the Ministry, Tumisang Thabela, while speaking at the presentation of the Secretary\u2019s Merit Award to Nyamhunga Number 1 Government Primary School in Kariba on Saturday. She said:<\/p>\n

To date, a terminal evaluation has been undertaken. You are all invited to participate so that you can proffer suggestions on what to be taken on board or discard for the next cycle.<\/p>\n

In light of the learning poverty that prevailed due to COVID-19-induced school closures, the ministry came up with a cocktail of alternative learning spaces.<\/p>\n

This entails blended learning, the development of catch-up materials and compressed syllabi for accelerated learning.<\/p>\n

In 2017, the school attained a pass rate of 72%, 78% in 2018 and 89% in 2019. This is quite commendable.<\/p>\n

I have been made aware, however, that the school experienced a slight decline of 86% pass rate in 2020 and 83% in 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n

The Secretary\u2019s Merit Awards awarded to the school include the Head\u2019s tablet and certificate of excellence, 40 tablets, a projector, an electronic interactive board, and a laptop.<\/p>\n
