Trainer-of-Trainers (ToT)

The ToT will be initiated in 2022 with officials from three districts (John Taolo Gaetsewe, Pixley Ka Seme, and Namaqua) as well as officials from the Provincial Head Office in Kimberley.

Each official will attend 6 weeks of training over the duration of the year. See the programme below.

The training process is very thorough- the trainees are required to i) prepare to run their sessions, ii)watch a model session, iii) run their own session and, iv) thereafter reflect (as a group) on their training sessions.

The officials will each train a small group of teachers during the year. We estimate that about 60 teachers will be trained during the year.

After the teachers have been trained in 2022, they will be expected to implement the programme with support inside their classes with all their learners.

The teacher training process is based on the same model used by the BCs Lead Team in the province.

I really cannot wait to start- I want all my children to be Grade 1 ready at the end of this year.

Thank you Louis for you dedication and enthusiasm. We need our teachers to be enthused with a love of children and a passion for mediating to our learners. God Bless.

Before the course, I never focused on the main concepts as I never really thought them essential to "real life" as a speech-language pathologist. I now have a very different perspective on why these aspects are important and how they move cognition forward.

Die Basiese Konsepte Program het my self vertroue weer op gebou. My taal gebruik en my manier van dinge doen het ook verander. Ek is baie bly en gelukking om deel uit te maak van die Basiese Konsepte Program.

Louis I salute you. I am empowered by the presentation. Never a dull moment even though the weather was hot. I've already implemented the programme with my learners.

We were taught the theory as well as the practice.  I now feel confident to start to implement the programme with my class and even with my nieces and nephews.
