Basotho teacher visit - July 2013



Camera Roll-2 by Flinty the nomadRichmond Park School Teacher Workshop

   LTPP 2013 teachers Anna & Sharon were invited to lead a teacher workshop for the visiting teachers at Richmond Park School in Camarthen. After their placement in Qacha's Nek, Lesotho they were armed with resources and ideas for the visiting teachers to take back home to assist with their New Curriculum.  A new integrated Primary Curriculum was introduced in January 2013 for the first three year groups in Basotho schools. It is very similar to the Foundation Phase in Wales and aims to improve the creativity and independant learning skills of their students. This is a difficult challenge for Basotho teachers however as there are limited resources and training available for them in order for them to delivery the curriculum creatively. We are in a position to help this and give Lesotho the "literacy" leap it deserves by creating active and effective school links, organising reciprocal visits, sending Welsh teachers on the Lesotho Teacher Placement Programme and donating to the Lesotho Literacy Leap fund to buy Reading Scheme books for Basotho schools.......Please share this link and donate at:
