“Addressing learning backlogs is key to unlocking a learner's potential. Whether it's gaps in foundational knowledge or challenges with language proficiency, we must tackle these issues head-on in Senior Phase Education.” Gail Campbell, CEO at Zenex Foundation. Join us in

Watch our panel discussion between education experts on #SeniorPhaseEducation . We are joined by Ms E. Khembo from the Dep. Basic Education , Dr Lynn Bowie from OLICO Mathematics Education, Prof M. Cekiso from Tshwane #TUT and Ms M. Modiba from Dep. Basic Education Link: bit.ly/ZenexLiveStream

“We need to deal with teaching time more intentionally and look deeply into the classroom context. Mental maths that is part of the core curriculum, is also critical in dealing with the backlogs and solving for core fluencies that deal with #SeniorPhaseEducation.” Lynn Bowie

“At the start of #SeniorPhaseEducation, learners are still battling with understanding the medium of instruction. The responsibility to improve their language should be shared between both content and language teachers.” Prof Madoda Cekiso from #TshwaneUniversityOfTechnology

“In SA, we have a unique context where a second language for many learners, is used as a medium of instruction. In finding solutions, we need to pay attention to continued teacher development, assessment practices and resources for English language teaching.” Ms Maureen Modiba.

“What's creating the gaps in learning? We are looking at how the curriculum is structured and its contribution to the struggles.” Elspeth M. Khembo from Dep. Basic Education

Data from a 2021, Grade 8 level baseline test in Maths indicates that the average score for the test was 39%, which is very low given that the test items were drawn from Maths content of Grades 4, 5, 6 and 7. We're finding solutions #SeniorPhaseEducation #LearningOutcomes

Did you know? In the 2019 TIMSS, SA ranked among the lowest in Mathematics and Science for Grade 9 learners. It's time to address the root causes of these learning challenges in #SeniorPhaseEducation. 🌍 Share your suggestions in the comments.

#SeniorPhaseEducation is often overlooked, yet it's a critical link between the Foundation and FET Phases. Experts from Dep. Basic Education, academia, NGOs & Funders have come together at our Seminar to discuss innovative solutions. #ZenexFoundation #LearningOutcomes #EducationMatters
