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

Metro South Training, Western Cape Education Department, 2015

‘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 informative. Very well presented. Very good use of visual aids.

I have never been to such a training. I was motivated and I can't wait to implement at the ECD and I hope I'll be doing my best!

Good work, keep it up and do the same for my colleagues. This work could help save the children of South Africa … and give them hope for a better future.
