Part of the Project

BCP FOCUS SCHOOLS IN SOUTH AFRICA

The principal and management team at Edendale Primary have found that language development is a key challenge for learners at their school and recognised the significant impact the Basic Concepts Programme (BCP) was having at schools in the surrounding area.

They requested training for all 8 of the Foundation Phase teachers, as well as the Learning Support Teacher of the school.

The two first training sessions (Colour and Shape) have already been completed.

Training is being facilitated by master mediator, Gill Brand.

The BCP has been formally added to the Foundation Phase timetables three times a week and the Basic Concepts Foundation provides classroom support and guidance in between trainng sessions.
