Tanzania Ordinary Secondary Education Form III-IV Kiswahili

Kiswahili is a key subject within the Tanzania Ordinary Secondary Education curriculum for Forms III-IV. Students develop language skills in Kiswahili, alongside English and potentially other foreign languages. The curriculum emphasizes communication skills and the analysis of literary works, considering both form and content. A 2022 curriculum implementation calendar provides a structured approach to teaching Kiswahili, including topics such as the growth and spread of the language within Tanzania. Kiswahili is taught as a subject while English serves as the primary medium of instruction. National examinations are administered at the end of Form IV, and continuous assessment throughout the school year contributes to the final marks awarded for each subject.
