Textile Technology and Design Syllabus Forms 5 - 6
1.0 PREAMBLE
1.1 INTRODUCTION
The learning area covers both theoretical and practical aspects of Textile Technology and Design. The syllabus recognises the use of Textile Technology and Design as a tool for inclusivity that encourages learners to appreci-ate diversity and differences. The learning area intends to develop learners of various social settings in the use of locally available resources in order to develop patrio-tism. It is intended to empower the learner to function in the prevailing economy which is production oriented.
The syllabus embraces the skills done in Textile Tech-nology and Design in the quest for creating high level of economic independence in Zimbabwe. Therefore, practical work is an integral and expected part of the learning area requiring scientific and investigative work.
To gain entry, the learner must have obtained at least an ‘O’ Level pass in Textile Technology and Design and two of the following: either one science and one business subject or all science subjects. Industrial attachment is highly recommended throughout the learning period. Teachers are therefore advised to ensure that learners undertake experimental work in an appropriate and safe environment.
1.2 RATIONALE
The Textile Technology and Design syllabus brings out the important roles that the learning area plays in society such as self-sufficiency, enterprising and patriotism in preserving norms and values (Unhu/Ubuntu/Vumunhu). The learning area creates life-long skills which include creative thinking and problem solving. The Textile Tech-nology and Design syllabus intends to achieve balanced knowledge, understanding and skills acquisition which enable learners to become independent in aspects of life such as self-employment, employment and further education.

thetic ideas in Textile Technology and Design4.4 analyse and apply relevant knowledge by organising and presenting information clearly
and logically.
4.5 acquire competences in using textile technolo-gy
4.6 evaluate acquired knowledge and understand-ing useful in decision making
4.7 identify cultural artefacts and designs and use them to create textile products
4.8 design styles draft and make patterns for dif-ferent functions and figure types
4.9 apply quality assurance skills in textile produc-tion processes

9.0 ASSESSMENTThe syllabus will be assessed in two components which are practical and theory in the form of continuous and sum-mative assessment.
9.1 Assessment Objectives
By the end of the learning period, learners should be able to:
9.1.1 analyse the relationship between textile properties and human needs9.1.2 demonstrate scientific knowledge on the composition, structure and processing of textile fibres, yarns and
fabrics9.1.3 apply investigative skills in evaluating production processes and the inherent nature of textiles9.1.4 demonstrate the ability to use technology in textile designing and manufacturing9.1.5 study market needs and produce designs which suit the gaps in the market with a high degree of creativity and
aesthetic value9.1.6 demonstrate calculating skills in textile technology, garment construction and business9.1.7 draft patterns according to specified designs and select the production system, ensuring quality in all the
processes9.1.8 select different skills in business such as leadership, bookkeeping and quality control to address the dynamic
environment9.1.9 carry out a market research9.1.10 demonstrate different ways of fabric construction9.1.11 analyse the effect of mechanical and chemical finishes on fabrics9.1.12 apply dyeing and printing techniques on fabrics9.1.13 construct and decorate textile products

Day 2 - 7½ hrs 100 40%
3 Continuous assessment 6 terms 100 30% 9.2.2 PAPER DESCRIPTION
Paper 1: Theory
The paper is in two sections A and B. Section A is compulsory. This section will be awarded 40 marks. Section B consists of five questions. Candidates are required to answer three questions from section B. This section will be awarded 60 marks (20 marks for each question).
Paper 2: Practical Examination
The paper consists of 1 question which candidates will answer. The paper will be awarded 100 marks of which 40 will be for pattern making whilst 60 are for construction. Advance information should be issued to centres 3 weeks before the examination. The candidate will draft the required pattern, lay, cut out and construct the article in two consecutive days. Candidates should be given 30 minutes break per examination session.
Paper 3: Continuous assessment Continuous assessment for Form 5 and 6 will consist of practical tasks, written tests and end of term examinations. The component will be awarded 100 marks i) Practical Tasks These are activities that teachers use in their day to day teaching. These may include subject related projects and individual practical assignments. ii) Written Tests These are tests set by the teacher to assess the concepts covered during a given period of up to a month. The tests should consist of structured and essay questions. Summary of Continuous Assessment Tasks In 5 terms, candidates are expected to have done at least the following recorded tasks per term:
