Monday, September 15, 2025 - 09:00 to Tuesday, September 16, 2025 - 09:00

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.

Very well put together course: well researched, well prepared, well delivered.  A course that can be trusted to yield results when applied in practice, and therefore a much needed and valuable tool to implement with learners who are in danger of failing to learn adequately.

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

Teachers use questions that evoke thinking and inquiry, so that the learners are able to discover and experience for themselves.

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.
