We recommend for the restructuring of the unit topics in the various academic levels.
There are 13, 12 and 4 unit topics to be treated in the course of the three years respectively in
the syllabus. We are advocating for the unit topics in the first year to be reduced. In as much as
topics supposed to be treated in the first year are continuation of what has been learnt at the
junior high school, we believe that the first term of the first academic year is practically wasted
due to activities like orientation, late admissions and the need to adjust to new surroundings so
therefore if any year should be loaded then it has to be the second year.
Last but not least we suggest there should be some alteration in the grading policy.
We recommend that the marking scheme should be raised so that 85%-100% is graded as A1.
We suggest so because this can go a long way in enhancing seriousness and students work rate.
This will help to prepare learners in the senior high schools adequately and comprehensively
towards their final exams and other aspects of their lives.
In conclusion, we sincerely believe that if the above suggestions and recommendations
are put into consideration in the construction and designing of the mathematics syllabus, will
go a long to have a huge and positive impact on the standard of mathematics education at the
senior high level.
