Traditional Framework

8-4-4 Curriculum

The 8-4-4 curriculum has been the backbone of Kenya's education system for decades. At Manga Girls Model School, we implement this framework with a focus on academic thoroughness, national examination preparedness, and strong foundational skills in literacy, numeracy, science, and the humanities.

Our experienced teachers guide learners through the national syllabus with dedication, ensuring each girl achieves her best potential in both continuous assessment and national examinations.

Competency-Based Education (CBE)

The Competency-Based Education curriculum represents the future of learning in Kenya. CBE shifts focus from rote memorisation to the development of competencies, critical thinking, creativity, and practical problem-solving skills that prepare learners for the demands of the 21st century.

We implement CBE with enthusiasm and skill, ensuring our learners develop the attitudes, values, and competencies that will serve them in higher education, careers, and everyday life.
