Part of the Project
Feedback from Support Visit 5
This was a visit conducted by the lead project volunteer to 16 project schools on the 23+24 July and the 6+7 August 2024.
A total of 42 teachers were visited at the project schools, with an average duration of 35 minutes per visit.
The primary goal of the fifth round of visits was to follow up with teachers at the start of the third term and continue to support them with the conceptual domain of position.
Demonstration sessions were conducted in 12 (75%) schools, while feedback and discussion sessions were held with teachers in 3 (19%) schools. In one school the visit was rescheduled.
12 (75%) of the 16 schools visited were rated as average or above average, while only three (19%) schools were rated as poor. In one school the visit was rescheduled.
Our recent support visit to Basic Concepts teachers revealed significant improvements, with many learners responding enthusiastically and using full sentences. Teachers successfully demonstrated the Concept Teaching Model, and some creatively integrated CAPS lessons with the BCP, showcasing exceptional effort. While some general challenges remain, such as with administrative tasks, the overall progress is commendable. We particularly appreciate those teachers who have made noticeable improvements and thank them for their dedication and commitment to the BCP.
