‘All foundation phase educators, esp. Grade R, should attend this workshop. If everyone in the education system uses this BCP model, we should see remarkable improvements in the learners' LIT/NUM over a couple of years.’ (Metro North, 2009)

Teacher Feedback

Thank you very much for the training. We learnt so much from you and how to run the programme... This was interesting and we really enjoyed it.

Kwena Basic Education Trust

The workshop was very educative and an eye-opener. These are things that we usually just take for-granted.

Kwena Basic Education Trust

Practical demonstration of mediation. Louis is an excellent mediator and it really helped to see it demonstrated. Loved the dedication, enthusiasm and firm belief in worth of BC approach to learning. I really think you opened our eyes to new methods of promoting learning and especially development of language.

BCP Short Course, UCT (June 2013)

This workshop is one of the most beneficial workshops I have attended. The trainer’s presentation style was warm, easy to follow and understand. I like that he included practical activities, examples and demonstrations.
