We are thrilled to announce that the PSP has once again been selected as the winner of the Global Best Award for the Category “Science, Technology, Engineering and Math” in the Africa Region!
This award was announced in recognition of PSP’s further extension work on the Joint Mentorship Project (JMP), including aspects such as:
1. Scalability of the model: How can the model be scaled up to reach many more first-time teachers (FTTs) in need of support?
2. Institutionalization of mentorship and support for FTTs: How can mentorship be fixed more firmly within the school and therewith benefit many more FTTs and their learners? This includes the TeachSmart book.
Zorina has been invited to present this work at the 12th International Education Partnership Conference in Brussels in September 2014. The overall winners in each category across all six regions (Africa, Asia, Australia/Oceania, Europe, North America and South America) will be announced at the conference in Brussels through the Global Best Award ceremony.
The PSP is very proud of Zorina and the JMP Facilitators for their excellent work!
