Goals and objectives were clear, easy to grasp and manageable. The enthusiasm and energy with which the course was presented made for an enjoyable 3 days!

I really cannot wait to start- I want all my children to be Grade 1 ready at the end of this year.

I understand now that teaching is not just standing in front of the class, but a discussion/ dialogue with your children.

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

‘BCP is foundational to a child's learning. It is the building blocks on which all other concepts are built. A concept needs to be fully understood by a child before a new concept can be taught. We often rush children's learning due to time constraints which is not correct.’ (KIDZPOSITIVE, Occupational Therapist, 2011)
The programme is explicitly linked to the South African curriculum (NCS) and references issues which are confronted by all teachers and challenges of ‘laying foundational’ thinking.’
