Namaqua Education District (Phase 2): Fifth Visit to the Project, May 2017

Monday, May 8, 2017 - 08:00 to Friday, May 12, 2017 - 18:00

A Training and Support Visit 

During this visit we will complete the training process that was started last year in February 2016. The training will focus on the conceptual domains of number and letter. The teachers and departmental officials would then have attended 6 training sessions over 6 days (48hrs of training).

The training will be followed up by class visits to the teachers to mentor and assist with the transfer of learning into the classrooms. It is likely that most teachers will be visited during these visits.

In addition, during the visit we will continue with the programme to train provincial officials from the Northern Cape Department of Education to support and mentor teacher-mediators of the BCP. 

The provincial officials will be required, by the end of the year, to show competency in both the theory and practice of the programme.

 

 

I now have a broader knowledge of how to teach various concepts and reach all intelligences and learning styles.

Thinking Stars: Teacher Feedback From Training, August 2014

The workshop was very educative and an eye-opener. These are things that we usually just take for-granted.

My concern about my learners’ language barriers and how to overcome these barriers has been solved for me.

Thank you Louis for you dedication and enthusiasm. We need our teachers to be enthused with a love of children and a passion for mediating to our learners. God Bless.

The sessions were clear, informative, exciting, well presented, practical, logical and relevant to the context of teaching young learners.

Now I can help the learners from our poorer areas to verbalize for themselves…  they are becoming more confident and starting to love their educational journey.
