ROLE DESCRIPTION:
Our Client has an ambitious long-term strategy in South Africa. The South Africa initiative aims to fully incorporate the “Learning through Play” approach across the four grades of the South Africa education system Foundation Phase, in order to get students more engaged in the learning process and helping them to better “learn to learn” from the start, and by then, supporting their skills development according to their needs. In order to reach the desired systemic change, the Client has identified two distinct but complementary parallel work streams:
To work closely with the government to secure the right policy reforms, curriculum development, teacher development… to make the learning through play approach understood, accepted and implemented as a key tool for children’s development. A key element in this level is to strengthen the current work done in partnership with UNICEF particularly the P.L.A.Y. training intervention which is targeting 150,000 teachers and ECD practitioners.
