About Chemistry syllabus

This Chemistry syllabus is a revised version that has been prepared to replace that of 1997 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 Chemistry syllabus pdf download

Moreover, the revision was inevitable due to the fact that the 1997 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.
