To help learners develop knowledge and understanding, teachers need secure subject knowledge and understanding that is relevant to the school curriculum and/or examination specification. Teachers are expected to know and understand the relevant national strategy frameworks, and deliver the relevant statutory and non-statutory curricula. Secure subject knowledge enables teachers to plan lessons and sequences of lessons, set teaching and learning objectives, and assess learners’ progress towards these objectives.
