Basic Concepts are the building blocks on which cognition and perception is built.

The course was very helpful to me as a teacher, excellent and exciting, because it opened my mind … how to integrate basic concept in all learning areas. It also showed that children should not be limited and their understanding should be developed step-by-step.

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.

I have learned so much through the Kwena Basic Education Trust and for that I would like to take this opportunity to say: thank you.
