GES Curriculum Practice
Practise 659 skills and 4,233 questions across 40 subjects, sequenced from kindergarten through senior high exactly as the GES curriculum is taught.
What the GES Curriculum is
The Ghana Education Service curriculum is the spine that runs through every stage of Ghanaian schooling, from kindergarten to senior high. It sets what is taught, in what order, and it is what both the BECE and the WASSCE are built on.
Its standards-based structure means each learning area is described as things a learner should be able to do, not simply topics to be covered. That maps unusually well onto skill-by-skill practice, because a standard is only really met when the learner can perform it reliably.
DigiTransact Mastermind follows the same progression. Skills are tagged KG, Basic 1–3, Basic 4–6, JHS or SHS, so a learner can work at the level they are actually at, move up when they are ready, and go back to fill a gap without embarrassment.
Who the GES Curriculum serves
Anyone following the Ghanaian curriculum who wants practice pitched at their exact level.
Families who want to know whether a child is on level, and what to do about it if not.
Staff setting standards-aligned practice and tracking progress across a class or a whole school.
Families overseas keeping a child aligned with the Ghanaian curriculum for a later return or exam entry.

How SmartScore works
Every skill begins on a SmartScore of 0. Nothing is assumed about what you already know, so the score reflects your work and nothing else.
A correct answer pushes the score up; a wrong one pulls it back. Harder questions move the score further, so guessing your way up is not possible.
A worked explanation appears after each question — right or wrong — so the score rises because your understanding rose, not because you memorised an answer key.
A SmartScore of 100 means the skill is mastered. Your dashboard shows which skills are done and which still need work, so revision time goes where it counts.
Because skills carry a level tag, SmartScore doubles as a placement check. If a Basic 6 learner is stalling on Basic 4 skills, the score says so plainly — and the fix is to drop back a level rather than push harder at the wrong one.

Frequently asked questions
Is the practice actually aligned to the GES curriculum?
Skills are written against the topics and progression the curriculum sets out, and every skill is tagged to a level from KG to SHS. It is an alignment we maintain ourselves — DigiTransact Mastermind is not endorsed by or affiliated with the Ghana Education Service.
How much is available across the curriculum?
Currently 4,233 questions across 659 skills in 40 subjects, spanning kindergarten to senior high. The counts on this page are read live from the database.
Can a learner work below or above their school year?
Yes, and they should when it helps. Levels are labels, not locks. A learner who needs to rebuild fractions can drop to an earlier level, and a strong learner can move up early.
Does this replace school work?
No. It is practice and feedback around teaching, not a substitute for it. The strength of the platform is telling a learner precisely which skill to work on next.
