FOREWORD
The Basic Education Curriculum Framework (BECF) outlines the vision and mission for the curriculum reforms. The Vision of the curriculum
reforms is to develop An engaged, an empowered and ethical citizen while the mission is to To nurture the potential of every learner.
The framework adopts a Competency Based Curriculum and has identified seven core competences, namely; communication and collaboration,
critical thinking and problem solving, creativity and imagination, citizenship, digital literacy, learning to learn, and self-efficacy. It provides a variety
of opportunities for identification and nurturing of learners potentials and talents in preparation for life and the world of work. It is geared towards
making learning enjoyable.
The curriculum designs are developed to enable implementation of the Basic Education Curriculum Framework. The design contains the National
Goals of Education and outline the Early Years Education (EYE), subject general and specific learning outcomes. It also suggests a variety of
learning experiences, assessment and links the topics to values, Pertinent and Contemporary Issues (PCI) and to other activity areas.
It is my hope that all educators in Early Years Education level will anchor their delivery to these Curriculum Designs.

INTRODUCTION

The Lower Primary designs are meant for learners in Grade 1 to 3. They have taken cognizance of the various aspects of development of learners
of that age cohort. The designs are comprehensive enough to guide the teachers to effectively deliver the curriculum.
The teacher must understand the learning outcomes and be able to use the suggested learning experiences to achieve the outcomes. The teacher
can also design own learning experiences as long as they achieve the designed learning outcomes. A variety of learning experiences will ensure
that learners are engaged in the learning experience. Practical experiences will allow learners to retain more in the learning process. The designs
allow the teachers to use a variety of assessment methods but in the end they must evaluate the achievement of the learning outcomes. The
curriculum designs are very critical and teachers must make reference to them consistently.

NATIONAL GOALS OF EDUCATION
1. Foster nationalism, patriotism, and promote national unity
Kenyas people belong to different communities, races and religions and should be able to live and interact as one people.
Education should enable the learner acquire a sense of nationhood and patriotism. It should also promote peace and mutual respect
for harmonious co-existence.
2. Promote social, economic, technological and industrial needs for national development
Education should prepare the learner to play an effective and productive role in the nation.
a) Social Needs
Education should instill social and adaptive skills in the learner for effective participation in community and national
development.
b) Economic Needs
Education should prepare a learner with requisite competences that support a modern and independent growing economy. This
should translate into high standards of living for every individual.
c) Technological and Industrial Needs

Education should provide the learner with necessary competences for technological and industrial development in tandem with
changing global trends.
3. Promote individual development and self-fulfillment

Education should provide opportunities for the learner to develop to the fullest potential. This includes development of ones
interests, talents and character for positive contribution to the society.
4. Promote sound moral and religious values

Education should promote acquisition of national values as enshrined in the Constitution. It should be geared towards developing a
self-disciplined and ethical citizen with sound moral and religious values.
viii

5. Promote social equity and responsibility
Education should promote social equity and responsibility. It should provide inclusive and equitable access to quality and
differentiated education; including learners with special educational needs and disabilities. Education should also provide the
learner with opportunities for shared responsibility and accountability through service learning.
6. Promote respect for and development of Kenyas rich and varied cultures
Education should instill in the learner appreciation of Kenyas rich and diverse cultural heritage. The learner should value own
and respect other peoples culture as well as embrace positive cultural practices in a dynamic society.
7. Promote international consciousness and foster positive attitudes towards other nations
Kenya is part of the interdependent network of diverse peoples and nations. Education should therefore enable the learner to
respect, appreciate and participate in the opportunities within the international community. Education should also facilitate the
learner to operate within the international community with full knowledge of the obligations, responsibilities, rights and benefits
that this membership entails.
8. Good health and environmental protection

Education should inculcate in the learner the value of physical and psychological well-being for self and others. It should promote
environmental preservation and conservation, including animal welfare for sustainable development.
ix

GENERAL LEARNING OUTCOMES FOR EARLY YEARS EDUCATION
By the end of early years education, the learner should be able to:
1. Demonstrate basic literacy and numeracy skills for learning.
2. Communicate appropriately using verbal and/or non-verbal modes in a variety of contexts.
3. Demonstrate appropriate etiquette in social relationships.
4. Apply creativity and critical thinking skills in problem solving.
5. Explore the immediate environment for learning and enjoyment.
6. Practice hygiene, nutrition, sanitation, safety skills to promote health and wellbeing.
7. Demonstrate the acquisition of emotional, physical, spiritual, aesthetic and moral development for balanced living.
8. Demonstrate appreciation of the country's rich and diverse cultural heritage for harmonious co-existence.
9. Apply digital literacy skills for learning and enjoyment.
Essence Statement
English Language during the early years is intended to engage the learners in activities that allow them to use and progressively
demonstrate the competences outlined. The emphasis in the presentation of the four language skills is to ensure that they are functional.
The learners should also experience the interdependence of the competences across the skills, and find relevance of what they learn in
their day to day contexts. Similarly, English language activities in Grade 1, 2, and 3 are expected to play a preparatory role in enabling
learners to use it as a medium of learning from grade four, upwards. Concerted efforts to enrich learning at this level will gradually
empower learners to exercise what they have acquired in the different functions that English language plays, at the national and global
level. Teachers of learners with hearing impairement should use Signed Exact English(SEE) to facilitate learning and avoid using
Signed English(SE) or Kenyan Sign Language(KSL).
x

General Learning Outcomes
By the end of Early Years Education, the learner should be able to:
a) Listen/observe and respond appropriately to relevant information in a variety of contexts,
b) Express self confidently using the language structures and the vocabulary acquired for interaction with others,
c) Read with comprehension, a variety of short texts of about 200 words fluently and accurately,
d) Read with comprehension a variety of texts for information and pleasure,
