GCE O/L Civic Education case studies

GCE O/L Civic Education is a school-leaving subject examination that introduces students to how a country is governed, how citizens relate to the state, and how individuals act responsibly within a community. It suits candidates completing the Ordinary Level cycle, candidates re-sitting the subject to improve a grade, and private or self-study candidates who need a recognised school qualification for further study or employment. The paper is delivered in two styles: multiple-choice items that test recall and recognition of concepts and institutions, and structured written responses that require candidates to explain, compare and apply ideas to realistic situations. Coverage runs from citizenship, rights and duties, through the constitution and rule of law, state institutions and the separation of powers, elections and participation, fundamental freedoms, national symbols and heritage, family and community institutions, courts and justice, public administration, sustainable development and the economy, and finally international relations and global citizenship. The GCE O/L Civic Education case studies are 5 cases and about 3,723 words.
