I have learned so much through the Kwena Basic Education Trust and for that I would like to take this opportunity to say: thank you.

The emphasis on language throughout the programme helps to develop learners' understanding of concepts and expand their vocabulary. The BCP stops learners from guessing, it gives them more structure and develops their cognitive functioning.

Metro Central Teacher Comment (July 2013)

This was a fruitful, educational, informative, empowering, enjoyable, helpful, superb, well-planned, and inspiring experience.

I understand now that teaching is not just standing in front of the class, but a discussion/ dialogue with your children.

It helps learners to think and forms (the) foundation for reading, writing and mathematics.

Basic Concepts are the building blocks on which cognition and perception is built.
