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

I understand now that teaching is not just standing in front of the class, but a discussion/ dialogue with your children.

The workshop was very educative and an eye-opener. These are things that we usually just take for-granted.

I understand how I can assist my learners who need intervention. The BCP will boost the self-esteem and knowledge of weak learners. It definitely helps me to guide my learners, using the correct language applicable to the situation.
Metro South Education District: Training (January, 2013)
Teachers use questions that evoke thinking and inquiry, so that the learners are able to discover and experience for themselves.
Metro South Training, Western Cape Education Department, 2015
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.
