Grade School Curriculum

 

In pursuing quality education and academic excellence, a school must organize its curriculum effectively not only to meet the requirements of the Department of Education but also to realize the vision-mission of the school.  A well-defined curriculum includes these major considerations: sequential development programs in all subject areas, periodical examination and evaluation of curricular offerings, well-defined subject area objectives, regular articulation program with secondary schools, well-structured special programs for all types of learners, effective correlation of the different programs across the curriculum, and maximum utilization of human, material and community resources. An effective curriculum must show evidence that pupils have developed wholesome attitudes and an appreciation of the Filipino culture and values.  Pupils must also manifest a genuine and lasting love for learning.

 

The curricular offerings in the elementary school are premised and chosen based on sound teaching-learning principles, on the level of maturity of the learners, and on the current developments in the field. 

 

The course content, concepts and skills are taught functionally to emphasize critical and creative thinking, develop desirable learning habits, and foster attitudes and values in the pupils.

 

The course offerings should lead the pupils to apply their knowledge and skills in their daily life situations; lead them to value themselves, their relationship with God and others, and their relationship with the environment. The offerings in each subject area lead the pupils to the needed changes and develop an attitude of readiness to respond according to their level of maturity.

 

* Curriculum review was conducted last February to April, 2018

    • To align the objectives and the skills with the DepEd requirements.
    • To include activities that would emphasize CKS College uniqueness.
    • To incorporate activities that help the students realize the importance of their cultural heritage.
