Die Bron Primary School: Visit 4

Friday, June 23, 2017 - 13:00 to 19:00

Continuation of Training

The training will focus on the conceptual domain of position, however, will also give teachers an opportunity to share their experiences about the programme with their colleagues.

Position is the 4th conceptual domain of the programme. There are two more conceptual domains that still need to be presented (letter and number). No date has yet been set for the last two training sessions. It might be that the last two sessions are presented in 2018.

The teachers have been applying what they have learnt in their classes with a small group of learners.

The school has formed an implementation committee, headed by the HOD Foundation Phase, to support teachers with the implemenation of the programme.

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

Christel House Training, July 2014

The course was clear, open and easy to understand basic concepts. What I liked most was that it links with the curriculum and it really works. It needs to be implemented at my centre.

‘I thoroughly enjoyed this workshop as I was given the opportunity to work with learners … while being guided. The trainer demonstrations with the learners were an excellent idea. This workshop has been a success as I can now see what our learners lack. It made a lot of sense.’ (Metro South, 2009)

Teacher Training

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

My concern about my learners’ language barriers and how to overcome these barriers has been solved for me.

Metro Central Training: Western Cape Education Department (October, 2015)

I love the programme. I was not aware of how to introduce a concept … . If I could reverse my years in teaching, I bet I would have produced mathematicians, scientists and doctors.
