It made me look at my teaching in a different way. I am excited to implement what I have learnt.

‘BCP is foundational to a child's learning. It is the building blocks on which all other concepts are built. A concept needs to be fully understood by a child before a new concept can be taught. We often rush children's learning due to time constraints which is not correct.’ (KIDZPOSITIVE, Occupational Therapist, 2011)

Teacher Feedback

The BCP provides "tools" for higher-level learning.

What I understand about the Basic Concepts Programme is that it is very useful in all subjects. I must implement it in every lesson. I must also try to be as accurate and precise as possible when teaching.

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