Garment Making Paper 3, WASSCE (SC), 2023

Candidates Weakness

 

The candidates’ weaknesses were manifested in their inability to

  • Adhere to rubrics;
  • Draw a toddler’s sleeveless dress with the following style features: tucks on the shoulder, yoke at the bodice, facing on the armhole, bow on the waistline, frills at the hemline;
  • Identify the layed pattern pieces labelled I, II, III, IV, V, and VI;
  • Name the lines indicated in the diagram;
  • Mention types of sleeve that can be attached to the bodice block without altering the armhole.

 

To overcome these weaknesses:

  • Teachers should engage the students more in the practical aspects of the subject such that they will be familiar with the various Garment Making terminologies.
  • Teachers should attend educational/skill-oriented workshops to update their knowledge in Garment Making.
