Wednesday 4th – Thursday 5th December was our first ever Teacher Training Course.
Our course included looking at the curriculum, phonics, behaviour, planning, Assessment, Outdoor and Indoor Learning, child initiated activities and how to set up your classroom environment. Sophie and I were also observed by all the teachers who came.

We trained 23 local teachers (16 of whom were from one of Harare’s poorest areas- Hatcliffe). Adult education is so expensive in Harare and it is our aim to train adults for nothing.

It was a great 2 days…..thank-you to Dave Sangwine, Paul Farelly, Lorraine Johnson and Joe Travis who donated funds so we could run this course. It was a scary experience for Sophie and I but also an exciting step in our careers!

Feedback from the teachers who attended the course is at the bottom of this page.
