Training Programme for Project Teachers

24 Foundation Phase educators from 4 project schools will be trained and supported to implement the BCP inside their classes.

The training will comprise 12 sessions run over the year. See the training programme below.

Classroom support and mentoring visits will be provided at the start of each domain and during the implementation of each domain.
