RSA NCS CAPS Grade 5 Life Skills Curriculum

The subject aims to develop learners through three different, but interrelated study areas, that is, Personal and Social Well-being, Physical Education and Creative Arts. In the Life Skills curriculum for Grades 4 to 6, Personal and Social Well-being is expressed as a study area containing three topics.

The three topics are - Development of the self, Health and environmental responsibility, and Social responsibility. Physical Education (PE) aims to develop learners’ physical well-being and knowledge of movement and safety. Creative Arts provides exposure to and study of a range of art forms including dance, drama, music, and visual arts. The purpose of Creative Arts is to develop learners as creative, imaginative individuals, with an appreciation of the arts. It also provides basic knowledge and skills to be able to participate in creative activities. Creative Arts will be studied in two parallel and complementary streams – Visual Arts and Performing Arts (Dance, Drama, Music).
