South Sudan Secondary 2 Literature

The South Sudan Secondary 2 English curriculum focuses on developing four key skills: speaking, listening, reading, and writing. There is also an emphasis on using English for research and inquiry, enabling students to investigate topics, interpret information, and present findings. The curriculum aims to equip students with the ability to understand a wide range of spoken and written English, including complex texts, and to communicate effectively in various contexts. Students are expected to analyze and evaluate literary and informational texts, selecting relevant information to support their viewpoints. The curriculum prioritizes a range and variety of language use, encouraging creative expression and sophisticated structures.

The Secondary 2 English syllabus adjustment for 2021, designed to address learning disruptions caused by COVID-19 school closures, recommends covering the following units from the Secondary 2 Textbook:

• Unit 1: Leadership
• Unit 4: Technology
• Unit 5: Drug Abuse
• Unit 6: Electricity and Sustainable Development
• Unit 7: Radio and TV

While specific literary texts or learning outcomes for literature within the Secondary 2 curriculum could not be definitively identified from the available resources, the emphasis on analysis and evaluation of literary texts suggests that literature plays a significant role in the curriculum. The focus on developing a wide range of language skills and creative expression also supports the importance of literary study.
