Secondary School History
-
Hi all, I’ve read about the history syllabus for secondary school students and MOE allows the school to design and create notes under the guideline of the prescribed curriculum like Singapore, SEA history etc. May I know if they are also applied to IP/IB students? I wonder if IB DP students are studying history according to the IB curriculum rather than the local MOE ones. TIA!

Does anyone know which assessment books or any practice resources that I can find, that aligns with this new syllabus textbook (new from 2023), \"Upper Secondary History : Unit 1 The Making of the 20th Century World 1870-1942\" (blue cover). Browsed through popular, quite confusing for upper sec history.

Not sure. But i heard that the new syllabus is not extremely different from the old one. Sthg like only the chapter on Stalin has been removed.

Ok thank you! Then no choice, need to cross check topic by topic. I tried to browse through but it's confusing.

Hi, i think u might have realized by now that your child’s IB school teaches lower sec History as “HACA (History and Current Affairs)”. So it is probably MOE textbook curriculum + some extra general knowledge stuff. Not sure if it extends to beyond Singapore, but do let us know if u find out!

Hi, you are quite right. They have created their own textbook e.g. school’s history, colonialism and their influences) and adding in slightly more content other than the MOE curriculum. Will update more as DS progresses.

Recently found this book, which makes learning historical information more like a non fiction thriller. Can help those having trouble liking history.
