First Training & Support Sessions 

The Kwena Basin Extension Project is launching soon, and we’re excited to kick things off with our first set of training sessions on Colour and Shape!

Training Details

Dates: 15 & 16 September
Time: 9:00 – 16:00
Venue: Ukhwezi Primary School, Belfast
Refreshments & lunch will be provided for educators.

Following the training, teachers will receive classroom support from the BCF team and local fieldworkers to guide their first implementation of the Basic Concepts Programme.

Support visits will take place 17–19 September.

Together, we’re taking important steps to strengthen teaching and learning in Mpumalanga Province.

The BCP provides "tools" for higher-level learning.

The BCP focuses on the learner… where the teacher acts as a mediator, prompts to access logical thinking and develops language.

'I can actually see results from using some of the ideas I got during the training.'

It made me look at my teaching in a different way. I am excited to implement what I have learnt.

Now I can help the learners from our poorer areas to verbalize for themselves…  they are becoming more confident and starting to love their educational journey.

'Definitely exceeded my expectations. I see that the BCP can have far reaching consequences if implemented optimally. We were told the how and why of implementation rather than the what.' (Metro Central, 2012)
