Physics Scheme of Work — Form Two 2027

Azimio la Kazi — Fizikia, Kidato cha Pili. TIE-aligned, ready to download and personalise for your school year.

About this scheme

This Form Two Physics scheme of work follows the competency-based planning format set out by the Tanzania Institute of Education (TIE). It covers light, magnetism, static electricity and current electricity, then experimental skills and data analysis, and ends with collecting and relating physical data and a prototype project. It is a starting point: add your school name and term dates, and adjust pacing for holidays and school events before submitting it to your head of department.

What the scheme contains

Every row of the scheme is one planned teaching week and carries the same eleven columns: Main Competence, Specific Competence, Learning Activities, Specific Activities, Month, Week, Periods, Reference, Teaching and Learning Methods, Teaching and Learning Resources, Assessment Tools and Remarks. The Remarks column is used for examination dates and school breaks.

Competences covered

Period allocation

Physics is planned at three periods per teaching week. Across the year the scheme runs to roughly 93 periods, with weeks left free for mid-term, terminal and national examinations and school breaks.

Teaching methods, resources and assessment

Methods include brainstorming, group discussion, field trips, think-ink-pair-share, problem-based learning, practical work, ICT-based approaches and collaborative learning. Resources include torches, magnets, capacitors, meters, resistors, connecting wires and batteries, graph paper and online resources. Assessment combines quizzes, questions and answers, project work, presentations, group discussion, flash cards and random assessment tests.
