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

All that I learnt from Day One  I was immediately able to apply in my class the following day… with remarkable results!

‘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)
