Burkina Faso CAP-CEG study plan

Map the official subject programme for your specialty into a term-by-term list of teachable units with content boundaries

Solve and annotate 20 discipline problems or exercises drawn from the cycle level you will teach, noting the standard method for each

Draft a one-page didactic sequence template (objectives, prerequisites, activities, assessment) usable for any lesson

List the five most common student misconceptions in your specialty and the diagnostic question that exposes each

Write two complete lesson plans in your specialty using the template, each with a stated competency, timed phases and expected student productions

Compare your plans against the competency-based approach required by the Burkinabè curriculum and correct mismatches

Build a bank of 15 graded exercises (easy, medium, challenging) with full worked solutions

Rehearse explaining one difficult concept aloud in under 8 minutes and record yourself

Design a 20-item end-of-unit test with a marking grid that assigns points to each competency

Classify each item by Bloom level and verify the test covers recall, application and reasoning

Write a remediation protocol describing how to regroup students after the test and what to reteach

Diagnose three sample student scripts, assigning scores and writing one feedback sentence per script

Summarise the main adolescent developmental stages and match each to two classroom implications

Draft a classroom rules charter co-constructed with students, with routines for entry, questioning and transitions

Script responses to three disruptive-behaviour scenarios using a calm, non-punitive first step

Identify the school-community actors (parents' association, village authorities, school management) and one realistic way to involve each

Outline the legal status, rights and duties of the Burkinabè civil servant teacher, including obligations of reserve and neutrality

Explain the structure and founding principles of the Burkinabè education system and its current reform orientations

Distinguish the roles of the ministry, regional and provincial directorates, and the school head in supervising teachers

Answer 30 short ethics and legislation questions in writing, verifying each answer against official texts

Build a table linking each official curriculum competency in your specialty to an assessment method

Write a short remediation case study: describe a struggling student, the diagnosis and a four-week support plan

Summarise the national policy priorities affecting your subject and note how they change what you teach

Review your week-3 test and revise at least five items to better align with official competencies

Deliver a full 45-minute mock lesson to a peer or recorder, following the official demonstration format

Self-assess the recording against a checklist of voice, board use, pacing, questioning and time management

Prepare and rehearse answers to 15 likely oral interview questions on ethics, pedagogy and your subject

Refine your lesson plan after feedback and identify three concrete improvements to apply

Complete two timed full-length mock exams under exam conditions and score them honestly

Rank your weakest three domains by mock score and run targeted 45-minute review sessions on each

Re-rehearse the oral interview and one demonstration lesson, focusing on the weaknesses flagged in week 7

Compile a one-page pre-exam checklist covering documents, timing and stress management
