We were taught the theory as well as the practice.  I now feel confident to start to implement the programme with my class and even with my nieces and nephews.

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

The BCP is the best place to start for learners with limited vocabulary and for closing the vocabulary gap.

Very informative. Well planned. Well organised. Based on CAPS. Good intervention programme.

'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)

The Basic Concepts Programme is basically the same as Vygotsky's Zone of Proximal Development. It is a way of teaching… it gives individuals a way to structure their thinking and reasoning.
