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

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

Public Open Training, Cape Town (2014)

I am blown away!!! This is most definitely the most useful course that I have ever attended.

Overberg District, Western Cape Department of Education (February, 2019)

Teachers use questions that evoke thinking and inquiry, so that the learners are able to discover and experience for themselves.

Metro South Training, Western Cape Education Department, 2015

The workshop was very educative and an eye-opener. These are things that we usually just take for-granted.

The sessions were clear, informative, exciting, well presented, practical, logical and relevant to the context of teaching young learners.
