    Geography is a discipline transcending the boundaries of the natural and social sciences. Central to the development of geographical understanding is the ability to appreciate how physical and human forces interact to give identity to places and to create recognizable spatial patterns.The study of Geography allows a clear understanding of causal relationships at different geographic scales - local, regional and global. It facilitates an understanding of many of the central issues emerging from human exploitation of natural resources.
    A course in CAPE Geography must cultivate in students an appreciation of the complexity and
    inter-relatedness of the environment in the Caribbean and the wider world. Specifically, the course in CAPE Geography must respond to the needs of individuals and society. For individuals, it must respond by deepening their interest in geographical knowledge and skills and enabling them to pursue higher education goals. It must also equip individuals for the increasing number of work situations in which integrative and graphical skills are important. For the society, it must respond by creating an awareness of the importance of living in harmony with the environment. It must foster an informed respect for cultural heritage and an understanding of the need for the sustainable use of resources and the consequences of their misuse.

    History is the continuous, systematic study, through research, of events over time, that are of importance to communities, societies, countries and ultimately, the human race. The CAPE History Syllabus seeks to enhance the interests, capabilities, skills and attitudes of students to enable them to develop as autonomous human beings capable of acting as rational and ethical individuals, and as responsible members of their community. The selection, structure and content of themes and modules have been informed by a desire to promote an understanding of the historical as well as the contemporary relationships among the nations and societies on the Atlantic shores. The syllabus has been organised to enhance the in-depth study of themes that will enable persons to acquire and practice the skills of a historian.

    The syllabus is arranged into two Units, each made up of three Modules. While each Unit is independent of the other, together they form a holistic vision of the Caribbean and the Atlantic region as a theater in which some foundations of the modern world were established.

    Sociology is a scientific study of social interactions, social institutions, social patterns and social change of human society guided by sociological theories and methods. Caribbean society has been shaped by historical forces which have led to the emergence of several small diverse and divided societies, each unique in many respects but sharing a common history of colonialism, slavery and indentureship. Despite evidence of socio-economic transformation and the influence of globalisation, the region still maintains a distinct identity. In this regard, sociology can equip students with the necessary knowledge, orientation and skills for understanding society in general and Caribbean Society in particular.

    The syllabus introduces students to theories and research methods of sociology, the sociological perspective and the processes of social structural change with specific emphasis on the development and modernisation of societies. Students will acquire a set of sociological competencies that will enable them to use the practical and problem-solving approaches to the analysis of society.
