An inquiry based integrated approach forms the core concept of curriculum transaction. It allows the students to explore, gather, process, refine and present information. The learning is therefore relevant and purposeful.
The curriculum integrates content areas like Science, Social Studies, and Technology with process areas like Language, Art, Mathematics, Drama, and Music. These are also dealt with as standalone subjects to help the students acquire necessary skills. Inquiry approaches allow the learners to take control of their learning. They build on their prior knowledge to make and test predictions, to gather and organize information and to synthesize their findings. These conditions encourage the development of abilities like exploration, reflection, risk-taking and making an informed choice.
