What Teachers Say

“I now have found more interesting ways to teach English. The suggested activities also cover more than one assessment standard at a time as well as being cross-curricular. So one’s teaching would turn out more holistic and be more fun to present.” -- Teacher from Talfalah Primary on the Whole Language course

Western Cape Primary Science Programme

The PSP has been operating since 1985. We are a teacher in-service education organisation that aims to improve the quality of teaching and learning in the most disadvantaged primary schools in the province. We develop teachers’ knowledge and skills and support them in their work with learners.

We focus on the critical learning areas of the Natural Sciences (including Environmental Education), Language, Mathematics and the Social Sciences. The PSP offers a variety of courses; develops learning experiences together with teachers and offers support in their classes.

Based on this interaction with teachers, the PSP produces innovative materials, including teacher resource books, learner task cards and display material. All our materials are written in easily accessible language; include careful concept progression; many activities and investigations, and include good suggestions for assessment.
