Part of the Project

Metro Central Education District, Cape Town

Teacher Training in Metro Central has recently been concluded. 55 teachers, learning support teachers and officials were included in the current round of training. The training was very positively received: -

'Definitely exceeded my expectations. I see that the BCP can have far reaching consequences if implemented optimally. We were told the how and why of implementation rather than the what.'

'I am excited to start the programme in my classroom because I expected just to be taught how to teach the concepts, but I’ve learnt exceptionally more wrt conceptual understanding and vocabulary extension + so much more.'

Teachers who have been trained will start to practise the programme until the end of the year and start to officially implement the programme at the start of 2013. We look forward to working with these teachers and supporting their implementation in the classroom.

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

Metro Central: Training, October 2014

Before the workshop I thought (that) I knew how to teach or introduce my lessons, but now I know that I was not doing justice to my learners. I took them for granted ... as if (they would) very easily understand my instructions.

This workshop is one of the most beneficial workshops I have attended. The trainer’s presentation style was warm, easy to follow and understand. I like that he included practical activities, examples and demonstrations.
