Introduction to Physics syllabus

This Physics syllabus is a revised version that has been prepared to replace that of the 1996 syllabus which has been phased out. The revision process focused on a change in paradigm from that of a content-based curriculum to a competency-based curriculum. O-Level Physics 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 2007. O-Level Physics syllabus pdf download
