The course was clear, open and easy to understand basic concepts. What I liked most was that it links with the curriculum and it really works. It needs to be implemented at my centre.

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.

‘It is an excellent programme. Just a pity that not all reception year educators are exposed to the training. My understanding of the programme- it is developed to systematically mediate concepts so that learners are guided to develop an understanding and so that learning is meaningful.’ (Metro Central, 2012)

Training Feedback

Basic concept is about improving teaching methods, language and the learning processes of our learners.

Thank you very much for the training. We learnt so much from you and how to run the programme... This was interesting and we really enjoyed it.

Thank you for introducing me to this "life skill". It is wonderful that there is also an online, interactive, support system with resources available.
