Metro South: Project Outcomes/Results

Two groups of Grade R teachers were trained over two years in 2008 and 2009. The teachers received approximately 20 hours of training as well as regular on-site mentoring by the project coordinator during the first year of implementation. 

The results of the project demonstrate its benefits for learners in the Metro-

  • 86.5% of learners who participated in the programme in 2008 and 2009 were found to be school prepared
  • 70% of the learners who participated in the programme in 2008 were found to be ready to cope with learning in Grade 2
