‘It is an excellent programme. Just a pity that not all reception year educators are exposed to the training. My understanding of the programme- it is developed to systematically mediate concepts so that learners are guided to develop an understanding and so that learning is meaningful.’ (Metro Central, 2012)

Training Feedback

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.

What stood out for me - was not teaching the content, but how to teach the concept and so much vocabulary is elicited …

I realize that children need to know their basic concepts so that they can develop understanding of the content of the curriculum.

If you understand the basic concepts you will have a better understanding of more complex concepts.

The BCP is the best place to start for learners with limited vocabulary and for closing the vocabulary gap.
