Our syllabus covers the learning and teaching of English Language from Grade 3 to Grade 7, taking into account the importance of English as a tool for communication, cultural, political, religious, social and economic development. It seeks to utilise Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) to enhance the teaching and learning of the English Language. The syllabus seeks to prepare learners to use English in studying other learning areas across the curriculum while also offering opportunities for lifelong learning. The syllabus promotes the use of the Communicative and Functional approaches to the teaching and learning of English Language.

The English Language syllabus emphasises the learning and teaching of the four basic skills and their sub-skills, namely: listening, speaking, reading and writing as well as other literacy and numeracy skills. The teaching and learning of visual, manual and tactile skills is emphasised in order to accommodate learners with diverse learning needs.
