The BCP is the best place to start for learners with limited vocabulary and for closing the vocabulary gap.

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

I was very happy about my development on this course… often as teachers we do not pay attention to detail, but because of Basic Concepts I was aware of the lack of language use in my class. I am now using a different approach with my learners and being aware of the small details that make a big change in the way I teach and learners learn. Thank you for this eye opening course.

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

I realize that children need to know their basic concepts so that they can develop understanding of the content of the curriculum.

If you understand the basic concepts you will have a better understanding of more complex concepts.
