What is inside
- All ten learning outcomes of the 2027 syllabus: belonging and tolerance, role models and extremism, harm and risk, online life, fairness and work, care, dependence, the value of life, animals, life and death.
- Each case opens with a dilemma a 15-year-old in Malta could meet this week. The ethical theories are the tools to argue it.
- One "Check it" case per unit: a post from a feed to judge. Who made it, what do they gain, what do other sources say?
- 14 unit tests at 60%, revision every seven days, 3 timed Paper II mocks and a Paper I mock for private candidates.
Every written answer is marked with a comment, the way MATSEC marks Ethics: points made and justified, more than one view, a reasoned conclusion. The report card is laid out by learning outcome.
Built from
The MATSEC SEC 40 Ethics syllabus for 2027, the May 2025 and April 2026 papers in the current format, and the examiners' reports. MATSEC publishes no mark schemes for Ethics, so the marking follows the mark allocations and the examiners' reports.
