MHIS Curriculum advocates teachers to use a wide range of approaches and methodologies in their implementation of the curriculum. In particular, they are expected to attain a balance between the development of pupils’ spiritual-social attitudes, knowledge, and skills, and place particular emphasis on enabling children to learn how to learn. The teaching approach includes the use of the pupil’s immediate environment as the context for learning, guided activity and discovery methods, collaborative learning approaches and differentiation. Integration is also a key approach in the curriculum. |
