NCDC S.1 & S.2 Local Language

Guidance to Teacher
The purpose of providing these sample items is to guide the teacher on setting End of Year Assessment items for learners of Senior One. End-of-year assessments will contribute to the 80% of the End of Cycle Assessment at Lower Secondary. However, what is provided in this document is not a complete End of Cycle examination format. The set items below offer guidance on setting test items for Local Language in the Competency-Based Curriculum. There are two Short Response Items and one Extended Response Item. The set items are divided into three sections: A, B and C. Use these to benchmark on setting similar items in the other classes.

NOTE: The teacher should translate the whole paper [except the translation statements in Question 2 (a)] into his/her respective local language before administering it to the learners. You are free to adapt the translations to the learners’ locality
