Collegiality Between Supervisor's and Teacher's Supports Successful Learning
|
After BTL training school supervisor visits are very much welcomed by teacher's. During visits to their classes supervisor's help teacher's to prepare for and implement lessons as well as giving feedback. Supervisor and teachers collaborate to improve the quality of learning.
|
Better Teaching and Learning (BTL) training for supervisor's, held by DBE3 in the five partner provinces between March and April 2011, has helped build collegiality between teacher's and supervisor's. This training also coordinated the work of teacher's and supervisor's in implementing BTL. Supervisor's work in a collegial manner with teacher's by mentoring them in order to maximize the success of learning in the classroom. A relaxed working relationship between teacher's and supervisor's is seen during school visits. During lesson planning activities supervisors act as discussion partners to help teachers improve their plans. Supervisors facilitate learning without undermining their role and that of the teachers. Furthermore, after lessons, supervisor's and teacher's sit together to evaluate the successes and weaknesses of the lessons and think of ways to improve them. More on this on . page 2.

DBE3 Partner schools are committed to making change and the impact is apparent on student's learning. Success stories from partner schools are the focus of this edition and these are featured in the main articles as well as in news from provinces. On page 10 and 11 you can see the successes of both
partner and non-partner schools that have disseminated DBE3 programs, which were presented in showcases in the 44 partner districts.

District Facilitators Ready to Support BTL Replication
DFs (District Facilitators) play an important role in the success of Better Teaching and Learning (BTL) training and mentoring its implementation in schools. DFs, who consist of teacher's, principal's, and school supervisor's, have been actively supporting and mentoring school's in implementing BTL modules.
The DBE3 program which is closing at the end of this year has attracted interest in its replication from many non partner schools. There are a number of districts in which all junior secondary school's held have held BTL replication training at their own cost.
