  • Planning lessons systematically
  • Organizing topics and learning activities
  • Managing the available teaching time
  • Connecting lessons with expected learning outcomes
  • Preparing appropriate teaching and learning materials
  • Monitoring curriculum coverage
  • Supporting effective classroom teaching

Who Can Use These Schemes of Work?

The P1–P3 schemes of work can be useful to:

  • Primary school teachers
  • Head teachers
  • School-based mentors
  • Directors of Studies
  • Sector and district education officers
  • Teacher educators
  • Student teachers
  • Education researchers

Teachers are encouraged to use the official REB materials when preparing their lessons and to follow any updated guidance issued by the education authorities.
