Part of the Project

Metro Central Education District, Cape Town

Teacher Training in Metro Central has recently been concluded. 55 teachers, learning support teachers and officials were included in the current round of training. The training was very positively received: -

'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.'

'I am excited to start the programme in my classroom because I expected just to be taught how to teach the concepts, but I’ve learnt exceptionally more wrt conceptual understanding and vocabulary extension + so much more.'

Teachers who have been trained will start to practise the programme until the end of the year and start to officially implement the programme at the start of 2013. We look forward to working with these teachers and supporting their implementation in the classroom.

For me the most effective aspect was the basic teaching model. When I implemented the model I found that my learners were more focussed when I followed the steps of the model.

I have enjoyed the BCP online training. I do think it was of great benefit as I have learned new approaches to help children learn. I also thought that BCP is also very helpful to children with difficulties as it provides them with concrete experience through manipulating the materials and being asked different questions to help them be aware of their way of thinking. Louis was very thorough and delivered the smallest details to help us understand the method. I found that very helpful and it enabled me to use it with my kids who have a difference in age and needs. I also enjoyed attending the training via Zoom as Louis was very efficient in using different features to make the training practical, fun and enjoyable.

I had an idea what the course would be like, but it was much more than what I had expected.

Louis I salute you. I am empowered by the presentation. Never a dull moment even though the weather was hot. I've already implemented the programme with my learners.
