1.0. INTRODUCTION1.1. Background Information

In developing the reviewed English subject syllabus of 2009 the issue of paradigm shift was one of the factors on which the review was based. The 1997 syllabus focused on putting the teacher at the centre of teaching and learning and on coverage of prescribed content. The 2009 syllabus instead pays particular attention to competence building and putting the students at the centre of teaching/ learning. Active teaching / learning techniques which enable the students to create meaning of what they are learning instead of techniques which leave students as passive receivers of ideas have been advocated in the 2009 English Language Syllabus.

1.1.2 Rationale for Review of the English subject syllabusReviewing of the English subject curriculum was conducted to address inherent weaknesses or shortcomings of the 1997 curriculum such as lack of clearly stated general and specific competences expected to be demonstrated by the students at the end of the course. Objectives in the syllabus did not reflect the need to prepare students who can become self-reliant. The previous syllabus emphasized more on language descriptions hence students could make descriptions however they could not use the English language effectively. Communication skills, reading and writing skills which were mentioned by respondents in the A- level research report as critical competences to be included in the A- level curriculum have also been given more weight included in the reviewed syllabus. The previous syllabus did not provide skills in entrepreneurship or vocations, creativity and problem solving. Emerging careers and contemporary issues were also not incorporated. The syllabus did not also reflect the need of preparing the learner to develop independent learning skills. Moreover it did not reflect the needs to prepare a learner to be self confident, analytical, critical and logical. These issues have been considered in the reviewed syllabus by having a topic on interpretation and translation, in both Form V and VI.

In selecting topics for the 2009 syllabus focus has been on language use rather than language description which has been de-emphasized. Topics which were described by A- level curriculum research review respondents as outdated such as semantics, syntax and phonology have been given less treatment in the reviewed syllabus which focuses on their usage rather than their description. Contemporary cross cutting issues including environment, HIV/ AIDS, life skills, human rights, gender issues, drug abuse, child labour and guidance and counselling have been integrated in the topics by recommending that texts on these issues be included in the texts to be studied in listening, speaking, reading and writing. Emerging careers such as editing, translation and creative writing have been incorporated so as to help students to develop and create job opportunities.

6.0 ORGANISATION OF THE SUBJECT SYLLABUSThe syllabus consists of two main parts. The first part or the preliminary part contains a short introduction, objectives of education in Tanzania, objectives of Secondary education, general competences, general objectives and some information about organisation of the syllabus while the second part contains the content of the syllabus in terms of competences and objectives for Form V followed by the matrix of Form Five content and the competences and objectives for Form VI and matrix for the Form VI content.

6.1 Class Competences for Form V and VIThese are statements which specify the abilities that students are expected to be able to demonstrate at the end of Form V and VI. From these statements, objectives for Form V and VI respectively have been drawn.

6.2 Class Objectives for Form V and VIThese are statements of behaviour to be exhibited by each student at the end of the given form. These are stated immediately after the specific competences for a given form.

6.3 Content Matrix.This is a table which shows topics/ sub topics, objectives for each sub topic, teaching/ learning strategies, resources, assessment and number of periods.

6.3.1 Topic/ Sub topicIn this syllabus topics / sub topics have been organised on the basis of language skills. The topics and sub topics are found in the first column of the matrix. A few topics however, are based on language description with the purpose of providing students some basic knowledge of English language. Many of the topics have more than one sub topic.

6.3.2 Specific ObjectivesThese are statements of behaviour to be exhibited by each student at the end of the given sub topic. When planning the teaching the teacher has to make sure that the planning and the teaching is done in such a way that at the end of the lesson the stated objective is attained.

6.3.3 Teaching and Learning StrategiesUnder this column the teacher has been provided with some strategies to use when teaching. Although the teacher is advised to use the recommended strategies, he/ she is also advised to think of other or more appropriate strategies for his/ her class whenever possible so as to make learning more effective. In looking for more appropriate / suitable strategies the teacher should always have in mind his / her student in the centre of learning.

6.3.4 Teaching and Learning ResourcesThese are mentioned in the teaching and learning resources column. The

viii

list is not exhaustive and the teacher is to think of better or more suitable alternatives whenever possible with an aim of making teaching and learning as effective as possible.

6.3.5 AssessmentUnder the assessment column the teacher is shown what needs to be assessed in each sub topic. An assessment that covers all the learning objectives is recommended. Until recently, school based assessment as well as national based assessment has given little if any attention to listening and speaking. This habit of neglecting the skills of listening and speaking in assessment needs to be discontinued. In the continuous assessment done at school level it is therefore recommended that students are assessed in the four language skills. For this purpose a variety of assessment techniques including paper and pencil assessment, interviews, observation during class presentations, debates, and discussion, projects and questionnaires could be used for continuous assessment. The skills of listening and speaking also need to be included in the national based assessment/ examinations so that there is a practical examination in addition to the written English examination. In the practical examination, listening and speaking should be given adequate attention so as to ensure that none of the skills is undervalued. 6.3.6 Number of periods. There are a total number of 194 teaching days in a year or an average of 40 weeks. The English subject has been allocated a total number of 400 periods a year.

7.0 INSTRUCTIONAL TIMEThis syllabus is to be used in two academic years; each having approximately 194 instructional days including three weeks reserved for mid year and annual examinations. The number of periods for teaching this syllabus is 10 periods a week. The teacher is advised to utilise fully the time suggested for class instruction. Lost instructional time should always be compensated.

8.0 ASSESSMENT OF THE SUBJECTThe table below shows the type of assessment, assessment measure and weight in percentage (%) to be covered at the end of the course. Teachers are strongly advised to apply wide selection of assessment measures in order to develop students’ ability for mastering the subject matter during the instructional process. Continuous assessment carries 50% and final examination conducted by the National Examination Council of Tanzania (NECTA) will carry 50%.
