I feel very strongly that Basic Concepts should be introduced to all learners- this will give me the time to develop their conceptual language and increase their vocabulary and verbal fluency.

‘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

Very well put together course: well researched, well prepared, well delivered.  A course that can be trusted to yield results when applied in practice, and therefore a much needed and valuable tool to implement with learners who are in danger of failing to learn adequately.

Thank you for introducing me to this "life skill". It is wonderful that there is also an online, interactive, support system with resources available.

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

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