Hsc Professinal 2016 @ Keats College

The HSC professional curriculum has as objective to address the mismatch between the skills acquired by students and the requirements of the labour market.

Keats College is among the 12 colleges in Mauritius which is offering this new syllabus as a pilot project for a period of two years since January 2015. To explain to our students the details of this new Cambridge Technical subject, we had the honour to welcome the personnel from the MES namely: Dr.Fokeera-Wahedally and Mr.Khushal. The challenges that this new syllabus are bringing about are the Cambridge Technical in ICT, the global perspective and the work placement during the holidays. The students will not have an examination after two years, instead portfolio-based assessments will be given after completion of each of the 6 units.

Keats College has invited the students accompanied by their parents from neighbouring colleges who are interested in this subject. They had the chance to witness the enriching experiences of our HscPro students who joined the program since January 2015.

This new combination of subjects at HSC level seems to be very promising for our youngsters.
