This is an excellent programme that can benefit any learner or educator.
Metro Central (2013): Training
Thank you for introducing me to this "life skill". It is wonderful that there is also an online, interactive, support system with resources available.
Metro Central Training: Western Cape Education Department (October, 2015)
Thank you very much for the training. We learnt so much from you and how to run the programme... This was interesting and we really enjoyed it.
Kwena Basic Education Trust
For me the most effective aspect was the basic teaching model. When I implemented the model I found that my learners were more focussed when I followed the steps of the model.
Ikwezi: Schools Development Unit, July 2014
‘All foundation phase educators, esp. Grade R, should attend this workshop. If everyone in the education system uses this BCP model, we should see remarkable improvements in the learners' LIT/NUM over a couple of years.’ (Metro North, 2009)
Teacher Feedback
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.
Kwena Basin Education Trust: Project Visit, May 2016
The programme is explicitly linked to the South African curriculum (NCS) and references issues which are confronted by all teachers and challenges of ‘laying foundational’ thinking.’
