To ascertain the balance between 'cognitive,' 'affective' and 'psychomotor' element emphases in the curriculum learning outcomes objective. 4. To ascertain the effective implementation of the 'Leaning Outcomes Focus' curriculum in the church school, by all stakeholders. Data was collected by means of interview, questionnaires and written records. Goals and objectives were used as criteria for judgment. Planned activities were used as items of evaluation.
