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 flier explains the main focus of the project:-

Louis Benjamin and Tami Mhlati visited teachers in the Strand to mentor and monitor their progress. These teachers have developed wonderfully.

Well done to the Etafeni teachers and care workers!

Baseline data for the project was gathered from a school close to the Etafeni Day Centre.

The practitioners again responded excellently to this colour revision session and introduction to shape. The project has been actively supported by the Principal of the Centre.

20 teachers at 8 primary schools and 5 ECD Centres have received classroom support over a period of three years.

The first mentoring session with the practitioners at the centre went off very well.

42 Grade R practitioners received their BCP Mediators' Certificates at an Awards Ceremony at Springbok Primary School on the 20th March 2012.

Teacher Feedback

I feel very strongly that Basic Concepts should be introduced to all learners- this will give me the time to develop their conceptual language and increase their vocabulary and verbal fluency.

Developed new method/techniques on how to use myself better in sessions and get better potential from children.’ (KIDZPOSITIVE, Occupational Therapist, 2011)

Teacher Feedback

Now I can help the learners from our poorer areas to verbalize for themselves…  they are becoming more confident and starting to love their educational journey.

Metro Central (2013); Training

I realized that if one lays down a solid foundation for your learners they will become self-assured and confident human beings.

'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.' (Metro Central, 2012)
