The scheme of work for Mathematics for JSS 1 (Junior Secondary schools one) in Nigeria has been made unified as approved by the ministry of education. Being unified means all schools be it private or government owned are to adopt the same scheme as it is approved for preparing students for mathematics exam in the West African Junior Secondary Certificate Examination.


The government approved scheme of work for JSS 1 Mathematics for all topics is now available on our platform. This unified (used in all states) scheme of work covers all topics ranging from first term to third term which starts with introduction and revision of the previous term, midterm breaks, revision, examination, and vacation.

The JSS 1 Mathematics scheme of work government-approved subjects for all primary schools in Nigeria make these scheme of work very important. It is the government revised scheme for all topics for JSS 1 Mathematics and it is applicable to all states. That is, schools (Private and government-owned) operating in all states in Nigeria are advised to make use of this scheme of work as it contains the approved curriculum.

Mathematics is a compulsory subject because they form the core foundation of development for students in secondary school level up to higher institution. It is required amongst other subject as an important subject combination in JAMB.

The JSS 1 Mathematics scheme of work seen here is the latest revised unified scheme of work according to the Ministry of Education. It is applicable in all states, it is the approved scheme for all Junior secondary school levels that must be compulsorily adopted by all schools in Lagos, Ogun, Ibadan, Port Harcourt, Abuja, Anambra, Delta state and all states in Nigeria be it private or public schools because it is from the scheme of work that WAEC questions in mathematics are curled out from.

The government approved JSS 1 Mathematics scheme of work here states all the topics to be treated and how they should be taught. Teaching students in secondary schools require deep explanation and practical examples, that is, teachers need to be more practical in your teaching. Nowadays, audio-visual means are now being adopted by majorly private schools in teaching JSS 1 Mathematics as it helps the students better assimilate and recollect what has been taught.

JSS 1 Mathematics scheme of work here also highlights the time frame given to cover each subject because it is the government’s directive that all schools finish the academic session within the same time frame hence the need to cover all topics within the stipulated period which is usually within 11 to 12 weeks.

The government-approved scheme of work for JSS 1 Mathematics is the same as the scheme of work used by all states. Say, for instance, the federal government approved scheme of work JSS 1 Mathematics is the same as the scheme of work used in the southern, eastern and northern part of Nigeria.

In this post, we shall cover the followings:

  • The government approved a unified scheme of work for JSS 1 Mathematics for 2025
