What We Do

Teacher Training - JumpStart Foundation

Teacher Training

Bringing the latest advancements in teacher training to in-service teachers.

Most Foundation Phase Teachers in South Africa have not received training on how to teach foundation phase mathematics. Mathematics experts and leaders in our tertiary institutions are acting to address this. JumpStart is now taking the best of what universities developed for pre-service teachers to our in-service teachers.

Addressing this gap is a major opportunity. With the right input and support teachers enable learners to succeed and find joy in mathematics. Hover the information blocks below to learn a little more about our training.

JumpStart currently supports 749 teachers on our programmes.
