*06 Social Studies (Jamaica)


Description

The Grade 6 Social Studies Course offers complete coverage of every topic in Jamaica’s National Standards Curriculum (NSC). Developed by Dr. Shalette Ashman, author of twelve Ministry of Education–approved PEP workbooks and textbooks, this course provides expert instruction, high-quality resources and full alignment with national standards. What makes this programme truly exceptional is its structured, step-by-step progression system. Students must master each topic before moving on to the next, ensuring they develop deep understanding, lasting confidence and long-term mastery of social studies concepts.


The course also includes authentic PEP past paper questions with detailed explanations, helping students grasp not just what the correct answer is, but why it is correct. In addition, the course is AI-powered, allowing students to ask questions at any time and receive instant, personalised feedback and guidance—as if they had their own private tutor available 24/7.


This is the ultimate master course for students who are serious about achieving excellence in the PEP Curriculum-Based Test (CBT) social studies examination.
