CBC Curriculum
The Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC) in Kenya follows a 2-6-3-3-3 education cycle, which means learners transition through a total of 17 levels, with each level lasting for one year. At The Brace School, we teach the three of the four levels:
1. Pre-primary level
(a) Play group
(b) Pre primary 1
(c) Pre primary 2
2. Primary level
(a) Grade 1 to 6
3. Junior school
(a) Grade 7 - 9
4. Senior School
(a) Grade 10 (starting in January 2026)
Cambridge Curriculum
The Cambridge curriculum is comprehensive in scope. Learners can expect to take part in coursework, written exams and practical assessments. Competency-Based Curriculum, on the other hand, intends to assess learners' problem-solving abilities. Assessments are project-based assignments that encourage learners to collaborate with their classmates and put their problem-solving abilities to use.
