Can I plan for more than one child?

Yes. Generate a separate plan for each student by entering their individual subjects and exam dates.

What if I do not know the exact exam dates?

Enter approximate dates. You can update them later and regenerate the plan without losing your subject and priority settings.

Can I lock certain study times?

You can mark fixed commitments so the planner avoids scheduling revision during those hours.

Introduction

CBC Learning & Revision Planner helps Kenyan students and parents build structured study schedules aligned with the Competency-Based Curriculum, balancing subjects, revision time, and rest across the school term.

What the Tool Does

Enter the subjects a student needs to cover, the exam or assessment dates approaching, and available study hours per day. The planner distributes revision sessions across the remaining days, prioritizes subjects with imminent deadlines, and produces a day-by-day timetable with time blocks for each topic.

Why It Is Useful

The CBC framework covers a broad range of learning areas — from Languages and Mathematics to Creative Arts and Environmental Activities. Without a plan, students either over-revise familiar topics or neglect weaker ones until it is too late. This tool brings structure to the process.

Who Should Use It

Primary school students (CBC)

Learners in Lower and Upper Primary juggling multiple learning areas who need a clear daily map of what to study and when.

Junior secondary students

Students transitioning into Grade 7–9 with expanded subject loads and more frequent assessments requiring organized revision.

Parents and guardians

Caregivers who want to help their children stay on track with revision without micromanaging every evening.

Teachers and tutors

Educators who need to generate recommended study plans for students preparing for end-of-term or national assessments.

Features

Subject and topic input with configurable priority levels
Automatic session scheduling that distributes work across available days
Deadline-aware prioritization so closer exams get more frequent review
Visual day-by-day timetable with time blocks and progress tracking
Export and print functionality for posting on a study desk or wall

How to Use It

List all the subjects or learning areas the student needs to revise, noting which ones have upcoming assessments.
Set the exam or assessment dates for each subject so the planner knows which topics to prioritize.
Enter the number of study hours available per day and any fixed commitments like school or extracurriculars.
Generate the plan, review the generated timetable, and adjust session lengths or swap days as needed.

Practical Examples

Upper Primary end-of-term revision

A Grade 6 student has two weeks before final exams in Mathematics, English, Kiswahili, Science, and Social Studies. Enter each subject, set the exam dates, allocate two hours per evening, and the planner produces a balanced revision timetable covering all areas.

Junior Secondary mid-term prep

A Grade 8 student has assessments in Mathematics, English, Biology, History, and Computer Studies spread across one week. The planner front-loads Biology and History revision since those exams come first, while maintaining steady Mathematics practice throughout.

Benefits

Replaces guesswork with a structured schedule that accounts for every subject and deadline
Prevents last-minute cramming by spreading revision evenly across the available time
Adapts to individual schedules — part-time students, those with after-school activities, or holiday revision

Tips

Update the plan each week as assessment dates change or new topics are added to the syllabus.
Include short breaks between sessions — the planner helps, but rest improves retention more than extra cramming.
Print the weekly timetable and pin it where the student can see it daily for accountability.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. The planner is designed around CBC learning areas and works with the subject categories used in Kenyan primary and junior secondary schools.
