“Success in the Senior Secondary Phase depends on the quality of the groundwork done in previous phases.”
The Senior Secondary Phase: Grades 10 and 11

The quality and integrity of work done in the previous phases ensures
that RPS learners are well-prepared to deal with the complexity and
volume of work in the Ordinary Level curriculum.
In addition, RPS learners in this phase engage in several supplementary
learning activities. These include science projects, workshops led by
guest subject specialists, and multiple mock examinations held
throughout the year. In-class learning is learner-centred, interactive and
led by a team of experienced teachers well-versed in teaching the senior grades.
All learners write the Namibian Senior Secondary Certificate Ordinary
level (NSSCO) in October of each year.
