This training will be run by Michele Lothian, the Learning Support Advisor in this district.

Michele has extensive knowledg of the programe and is a certified trainer of the Basic Concepts Programme.

The Grade 1 and 2 teachers will be trained at this school.

The training sessions will be interspersed over the year, allowing teachers time to implement the programme before proceeding to the next conceptual domain.

The training is endorsed by Basic Concepts Unlimited.

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.

Kwena Basic Education Trust

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.

ZOOM TRAINING 2 FEEDBACK

Basic concept is about improving teaching methods, language and the learning processes of our learners.

Pixley Kaseme: Training Sessions 1+2

The BCP focuses on the learner… where the teacher acts as a mediator, prompts to access logical thinking and develops language.
