About Basic Mathematics syllabus

This Basic Mathematics syllabus is a revised version that has been prepared to replace that of 1996 which has been phased out. The revision process focused on a change in paradigm from that of a content-based to a competency-based curriculum. O-level Basic Mathematics syllabus pdf download

Moreover, the revision was inevitable due to the fact that the 1996 syllabus did not sufficiently consider the current social, cultural, global, technological, and subject biases and cross-cutting issues taking place worldwide but particularly in Tanzanian Society.

In addition, the revision has also taken into consideration the requirements for the Secondary Education Development Plan (SEDP). This syllabus has been introduced for implementation in January 2005. O-level Basic Mathematics syllabus pdf download
