Metro Central: BCP Results for Grade 1 (2009)
Part of the Project
Key Findings:-
- The majority of learners (67%) who participated in the BCP in Grade R (2008) were found to be school prepared in Grade 1 in 2009 as opposed to 35% of Grade 1 learners in 2008.
- The majority of learners (71.2%) who participated in the BCP in Grade R coped with learning in Grade 1 and could progress (some with support) to Grade 2.
These results suggest that the metacognitive intervention programme (BCP) implemented in Grade R was effective in developing and supporting the cognitive functions required for school learning.
