The Form Four (old syllabus) scheme typically carries columns such as Competence, Specific Objectives, Main Topic, Sub-topic, Month, Week, Periods, Reference, Teaching Activities, Learning Activities, Learning Aids and Assessment Tools. The Remarks column (where present) is used for examination dates and school breaks.
Kiswahili is planned at approximately 4–6 periods per major skill block depending on the school timetable.
Methods include usomaji, uandishi wa kuongozwa, majadiliano na mazoezi. Resources include vitabu vya kiada, matini na kamusi. Assessment combines mazoezi, majaribio, insha na majadiliano.
