On 11 August, @DBE_SA Minister @Siviwe_G met with the FLOAT collaboration - a bold partnership of donors and government aiming to ensure that all South African children are literate and numerate by age 10. #PartnersInEducation #EarlyGradeMatters #EducationForAll #FLOAT
The Department of Basic Education has gathered provinces, NGOs & funders to discuss the latest synthesis of reading research and data from the Early Grade Reading Studies (EGRS). #readtolead #buildingfoundations #foundationphase
@JETEdServices AGM. What amazing service in advancing education from board member Nathan Johnston - involved for 28years. We can learn from his insights into governance of NPO’s #JETAnnualMeeting
I had the opportunity to discuss implementing #FoundationalLearning interventions at scale at @TaRL_Africa’s 5th Anniversary Conference. Read about our insights on how to best scale interventions to benefit the most children: linkedin.com/posts/benjamin…
New article out on structured pedagogy with Peggy Dubeck. Good timing for #LiteracyDay
#SeniorPhaseEducation @ZenexF is mother-tongue bilingual education the ‘magic bullet’ ? Not as simple. Prof Feza @Univenofficial maths research: Foundation Phase - Grade 1 learners can count to 30’s in English, yet not proficient in counting in mother-tongue. Implications?
#SeniorPhaseEducation @ZenexF seminar Prof Madoda Cekiso “every teacher is a language teacher” Teacher development programmes addressing English (LOLT) backlogs must target all teachers @RoomtoRead @DBE_SA @The_NECT @JETEdServices
#SeniorPhaseEducation @ZenexF seminar. Dr Lynn Bowie recommends review of maths curriculum Grade 8&9 e.g. patterns, content repeated. Also focus on mental maths @olicomaths @CASMEZA @Siyavula @NickyRo88093586
Senior Phase neglected, all focus on Grade 12. Evidence from Zenex-funded projects- Grade8&9 lose valuable teaching time at least 12 weeks per year - assessment and no schooling ‘study-time’ during matric exams @ZenexF @metcalfemary11 @DBE_SA @resepgroup #SeniorPhaseEducation
“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
EGRP @DBE_SA building evidence over 10yrs. Biggest lever is instructional coaching to improve teaching and learner outcomes. External coaching works. Can Dept Heads (DHs)play role? Need training and time-DHs also class teachers @ZenexF @metcalfemary11 @funda_wande
During the panel discussion, @UNICEF_SA's @C_Muhigana and @ZenexF's @gailchat, reflected on their organisations' involvement in the #EGRS, which entailed the roll-out of high-quality teacher professional development support across Grades 1 to 3 in non-fee-paying primary schools.
Indeed a privilege to honour the Minister, most importantly creating the platform for philanthropy @IPASA_News to partner with government to support education @The_NECT @DBE_SA @ZenexF
'Leading with care, leading with commitment and service, leading in collaboration with others' Appreciating the Minister @AngieMotshekga by @gailchat @ZenexF @DBE_SA @The_NECT
Philanthropy plays a crucial role," says Gail Chat (@gailchat), CEO @ZenexF, at #EducationIndaba2024. She emphasizes the importance of teacher quality, particularly in early grades for literacy & numeracy, as the foundation for a strong education system. @CoruscaKhaya
@ZenexF Given the extent of education need, channel 90% of philanthropic resources to systemic initiatives working with @DBE_SA government #educationindaba2024 @IPASA_News
#educationindaba @funda_wande presenting models - backed by evidence - on how to support teaching in the classroom in early grades. Can’t emphasize more the need to evaluate education initiatives to build evidence based models @ZenexF @IPASA_News
@ZenexF #EducationIndaba We need to codify & build an evidence base on multi-stakeholder collaboration models in education @jameskeevy @JETEdServices speaks to the science of implementation and collaboration
This report addresses key issues of support to teachers to help improve learning. Clear, Doable and Rewarding - three key words for teaching. if you don't know what they mean, then check out the new report.
📘Our new Report, "Making Teacher Policy Work" is out! ℹ️ wrld.bg/VSOW50Q6HuL Thank you @CH_Benmoussa @florlopezboo @jari_lavonen @SariMultala @benlpiper @keishiathorpe Carlos Vargas Tamez, Luis Benveniste, all the participants & people involved in! Let's #InvestinPeople!

What resources are available on the #UlwaziLwethu portal? -The Ulwazi Lwethu reading materials include levelled Graded Readers, fiction and non-fiction Storybooks, collections of Big Books, Anthologies and Classroom Libraries. Access them for FREE here: ulwazilwethu.org.za
“Books previously written in English and then translated into African languages and those that are originally written in African languages are different.” - Dr Xolisa Guzula quoted speaking on #UlwaziLwethu reading materials in the @dailymaverick here: bit.ly/3F1BzMw
Learning in home-language supported with quality reading resources key to addressing reading challenge in SA @DBE_SA @NASCEE_SA @IPASA_News @right2readproj
A key constraint to reading for SA children has been the dearth of readers & teaching materials in African languages. To meet this challenge, Zenex Foundation & partners invested in a collection of 1 430 readers & storybooks. More on #UlwaziLwethu here: bit.ly/3KNByPN
