About JSS2 Scheme of Work
In Nigeria, the second year of junior secondary education, known as JSS2, signifies a
stage of academic progression. Generally, students at this level are approximately
between the ages of 12 and 14. During this stage, students explore various topics in
greater detail, expanding upon the basics covered in JSS1. Also, the curriculum in-
corporates extracurricular activities to promote comprehensive growth.
The Junior Secondary School 2 (JSS2) Unified Scheme of Work in Nigeria serves as a
comprehensive guideline for educators to plan and execute teaching activities
throughout the academic year. The new scheme is driven by technology and has
equally enhanced the active participation of learners, improving standards in
schools across the state and tilting the students to internationally acceptable learn-
ing standards.
In 2023, the state governments unveiled the reviewed unified scheme of work, mo-
bile learning devices, and e-books for secondary school students, designed to make
learning more engaging and student-centred. The scheme of work is aimed at help-
ing the teachers develop lesson plans and notes that will reflect 21st-century learn-
ing, enabling students to study and research on their own. It is also aimed at en-
hancing the quality of education and ensuring consistency in teaching and learning
across schools in the state.
The unified scheme of work contains syllabi of various subjects required for the Ba-
sic Education Certificate Examination (BECE). It also contains lesson plans, assess-
ment methods, and teaching methodologies which are strategic for effective teach-
ing and learning.

Agricultural Science
Introduction
Agriculture is fundamental to human survival. By studying agricultural science in Ju-
nior Secondary Schools, students learn about the importance of agriculture in pro-
viding food and other essential resources to sustain life.
Agricultural Science for Junior Secondary School 2 (JSS2) builds on concepts stud-
ied in J.S.S.1. It explores concepts such as cultural practices, agricultural practices,
and fieldwork. Students are exposed to real-life farming and fishing experiences,
and they acquire skills that would help them run a farm or pond on their own.
By understanding the principles of agricultural science, students will gain valuable
insights into the vital role agriculture plays in providing food security, sustaining
livelihoods, and contributing to the economy.

Christian Religious
Studies
Introduction
Christian Religious Studies (CRS) is a subject taught in Junior secondary schools
where students learn about Christianity. It is the study of what Christians believe,
how they worship, and how Christianity has affected society. It teaches several
Bible stories, Christian traditions, and what is right and wrong according to Chris-
tian teachings.
The main aim of teaching CRS in Junior secondary schools is to help students un-
derstand the most important beliefs of Christianity and how they relate to different
parts of life.
Christian Religious Studies is taught in Junior Secondary schools to give students a
full understanding of Christianity as a religion, including its cultural, historical, and
social aspects. It also teaches students to value tolerance, respect, and empathy
for people from different religious backgrounds.

Arts
Introduction
The Cultural and Creative Arts (CCA) is an integration of Music, Visual Arts, Drama,
and Dance in which a student is expected to grow alongside the cultural heritage of
his people.
In junior secondary schools, cultural and creative arts education helps students ex-
plore their creativity and learn about different types of art, like music, painting, act-
ing, and dancing. It is a way for them to express themselves and discover their cul-
tural heritage.
Through these activities, students not only develop important skills but also get to
understand more about themselves and the world they live in. They also learn and
appreciate the many ways people express themselves through art.

ing nutrition and food science, clothing and textile designs, homemaking, sexually
transmitted diseases, and hygiene and puberty.
In JSS2, students typically build upon the foundational knowledge gained in JSS1 by
delving deeper into practical applications of home economics principles. They learn
about healthy eating habits, meal planning, and preparation, budgeting, sewing and
garment construction, as well as interpersonal skills necessary for maintaining
healthy family relationships.
The scheme of work aims to empower students with the knowledge and skills
needed to make informed decisions in their personal lives, contribute effectively to
their families, and potentially pursue careers in related fields such as nutrition,
health, hospitality, or fashion design.

Introduction
Islamic Religious Studies (IRS) for JSS2 students offers a comprehensive explo-
ration of Islam's principles, practices, and teachings.
At this level, students deepen their understanding of various aspects of the Islamic
faith, including beliefs, rituals, history, and ethics. They delve into the life and
teachings of the Prophet Muhammad, the Quran, Hadith, and the civilization shaped
by Islam.
The objective of IRS in JSS2 is to establish a solid groundwork of Islamic knowledge
and values among students, nurturing their spiritual and moral growth. It encour-
ages them to reflect on morals and grasp Islamic principles within contemporary
Nigerian society.
This subject not only deepens their understanding of Islam but also fosters atti-
tudes of tolerance, respect, and harmony among different faiths.

Igbo
Introduction
In Junior Secondary School 2 (JSS2) in Nigeria, students learn about the lan-
guage and culture of the Igbo people. Igbo is one of the major ethnic groups in
Nigeria. It is a big part of Nigeria's southeastern culture, spoken by millions of
people.
In class, they study how to speak, read, and write Igbo, as well as learn about
Igbo traditions and stories. By studying Igbo, students not only learn a language
but also learn about the history and customs of the Igbo people, which helps
them appreciate Nigeria's diverse cultures and strengthens their sense of iden-
tity.

Literature
Introduction
In Junior Secondary School 2 (JSS2), Literature in English introduces students to a
wider range of literary forms- prose, poetry, and drama, studied in JSS1. This allows
them to analyze the intricate narrative techniques as well as poetic and literary de-
vices present in these works. Through such exploration, students not only sharpen
their critical thinking skills but also develop a deeper understanding of human expe-
riences and cultural diversity.
By studying Literature in English at this level, students gain valuable insights into
the complexities of society and human nature. They equally gain an immersive jour-
ney through literary works, enabling them to appreciate the beauty of language, the
richness of cultural heritage, and the depth of human experience.

Mathematics
Introduction
In the second year of junior secondary school, students venture deeper into funda-
mental mathematical principles exploring more complex topics. The curriculum en-
compasses a broad spectrum of subjects including algebra, geometry, trigonometry,
and basic statistics.
Students are introduced to advanced problem-solving techniques building upon the
foundational understanding established in J.S.S.1. Practical applications of Mathe-
matics are also underscored to demonstrate its relevance in daily life and future
professions.
Overall, the Mathematics scheme of work in JSS2 endeavours to equip students
with the requisite skills and knowledge to tackle increasingly complex mathematical
concepts as they advance in their academic journey.

Basic Science
Introduction
In Junior Secondary Schools (JSS2) in Nigeria, Basic Science aims to equip students
with essential scientific knowledge and inquiry abilities. With the adoption of the
National Policy on Education, the Basic Science program was introduced as a core
subject at the Junior Secondary School level to introduce students to the world of
science and to prepare them for higher education in science and technology.
Basic science is a science subject taught at the lower, upper primary, and junior sec-
ondary school levels. It helps students gain an understanding of the roles and func-
tions of science in everyday life and the world in which they live.
By studying Basic Science at this level, students are encouraged to grasp scientific
concepts, principles, and methodologies through a blend of practical experiments,
theoretical learning, and hands-on activities. This foundational grounding in Basic
Science is pivotal for students as it sets the stage for further academic pursuits in
STEM disciplines and future career paths.
