Philosophy of Social Studies Social studies is concerned with the study of
people, their activities and relationships as
they interact with one another and with
their physical and socio-cultural
environment in an effort to meet their
needs. It is essentially the study of human
group experiences.
Social Studies is inter-disciplinary in nature
and draws its subject matter from a variety
of social sciences disciplines – History,
Geography, Sociology, Health and Family
Life and Caribbean Studies.
It promotes civic competence. It teaches
students to act upon the core values of
human dignity, equality, cooperation, self-
worth, national pride and self-discipline and
as such develop into responsible citizens.
Social Studies programmes provide
experiences through which students are
expected to gain knowledge and insights,
develop and practice a variety of skills and
attitudes as well as human understanding
and social responsibility.
Geography It is the study of the Earth’s
landscapes, peoples, places
and environments. It is about
the world in which we live. It
covers two disciplines: Human
Geography and the natural
sciences (Physical Geography).
