How We Implement CBC at Linsec
The Competency Based Curriculum is at the heart of everything we do — here's what that looks like in practice
Inquiry-Based Learning
Our teachers guide learners to ask questions, investigate, and discover answers themselves — building critical thinkers from an early age.
Collaborative Learning
Group activities and peer learning are woven into every lesson, teaching children how to communicate, cooperate, and respect one another.
Creative Expression
Art, music, drama, and hands-on projects give every child a platform to express themselves and develop their unique strengths.
Continuous Assessment
Rather than relying solely on exams, we track each child's growth through ongoing assessments that celebrate progress at every stage.
Our CBC Approach
How we bring Kenya's Competency Based Curriculum to life at Linsec
Competency Based Curriculum (CBC)
At Linsec, CBC isn't just a requirement — it's a philosophy we fully embrace. Our teachers are trained to deliver engaging, learner-centred lessons that go beyond memorisation. We focus on building real competencies: communication, critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration — preparing every child for life, not just examinations.

Education That Goes Beyond the Classroom
At Linsec, we measure success not just by grades but by the growth we see in every child — their confidence, their character, and their readiness for the world ahead. We are committed to being Nairobi's most trusted primary school group, one child at a time.
