Curriculum
Bible Character Based Education
Individualised Mastery Learning
For over 40 years, Accelerated Christian Education has been the trendsetter in Biblical educational reform. Its philosophy is built on basic principles of the Word of God. Students are taught to see life from God’s point of view, to take responsibility for their own learning, and to walk in Godly wisdom and character. ACE is not just a publisher but a comprehensive Bible-based programme that serves both schools and homeschools.
Character Development
Godly character training is part of the ACE learning experience. Sixty character traits, such as kindness, loyalty, and honesty, are taught within the curriculum. Students can observe character development in the true-to-life character strips and then apply the Godly character lessons to their own lives.
Scriptural Foundation
The ACE programme is an extraordinary educational approach, Biblical in its core, that prepares students for tomorrow’s world while giving them traditional moral values that will last a lifetime. Our aim is to build Godly citizens and Christian leaders of tomorrow. ACE meets the educational needs of today, with the traditional values of yesterday.
Accelerated Christian Education is more than quality academics. The curriculum is built on a theistic philosophical foundation. Students learn to see life from God's point of view. Their personal relationship with God and their personal responsibilities to family, church, and community are of primary concern. To God be the glory!
Individualised
Mastery Learning
The programme consists of mastery-based curriculum and materials that are self-instructional, character building, and individually prescribed.
Whether the student is a high achiever, a moderately paced learner, or a slow learner, the ACE educational process begins at the exact level determined by the child’s ability. This is individualisation, making it possible for each student to master the subject matter before moving on. Such mastery is the foundation upon which all future learning is built.
Students are tested diagnostically upon entering schools or home schools using the ACE programme and then placed in the curriculum in each subject at their own performance levels determined by the results of the diagnostic tests.
Diagnostics & Prescription
Finding strengths & Weaknesses
Are your students really mastering basic math, English, social studies, science, and spelling skills? Could there be some learning gaps that have not been identified? A student’s academic needs must be diagnosed before proper curriculum can be prescribed. Proper academic diagnosis and prescription is vital to a student’s achievement.
Each student entering the ACE programme is given diagnostic tests to determine skill and concept mastery. The diagnostic tests assist us in determining the student’s academic needs in each subject. After the student completes the diagnostic testing, he is given curriculum that meets and challenges him at his performance level.
Five academic areas are tested: math, English, social studies, science, and spelling. These tests cover basic skills normally mastered before high school. If weak areas are evident from the testing, the appropriate gap PACEs are prescribed to strengthen specific weaknesses. After completing the gap PACEs, the student progresses at his performance level.
Parental Involvement
Committed to parents too
At CEE. we are committed to the parent as well as the student. We believe that education of a child should begin with the parent. That’s why we you join TEACH, we have compiled training materials that will enable you to implement the programme successfully. This includes a Home Educators' Manual and Activity Pac, Scope and Sequence, Diagnostic testing and Online Record Keeping System.
Parents are also an integral part of our schools using the ACE curriculum programme. Procedures are set in place to provide the parent several avenues of communication with the school staff.
In addition to academic achievement, ACE pupils are able to work with minimal supervision because they have learned the godly lesson of self-discipline. Here are young people who know their God and are well equipped to serve Him in whatever sphere He calls. Many graduates of the system have gone on to higher education, to missionary work all over the world, or are themselves teaching in Christian schools. In some countries, even secular governments have begun to set up ACE learning centres within their state schools because they see that the system works!

If, as a follower of the Lord Jesus Christ, you believe that the Bible is the Creator’s reliable and trustworthy handbook to the whole of life, then you will be glad to hear that the ACE curriculum is written from the literal Bible creation base. In other words, we believe that God says what He means and means what He says.
