Our Curriculum

The Scolastica Schools’ education system follows a structured curriculum designed by the Tanzania Institute of Education (TIE) under the guidance of the Ministry of Education, Science, and Technology (MoEST). It emphasizes competency-based learning, fostering practical skills alongside theoretical knowledge.
