Learning Support at Bergvliet Primary has a whole team approach. It includes the Learning Support teacher (Mrs Leech), Occupational Therapist (Mrs Hey) and Speech Therapist (Mrs Ahmed). The class teachers in Grades R – 7, along with Mrs Leech, the O.T. therapist and Speech Therapist, identify learners who need extra assistance to cope with the demands of their Grades. These learners will then have extra support in small groups every week.
Extra lessons after school are also offered. The Foundation Phase have Lucky Lates where Language and Maths Skills are consolidated twice a week. The Senior Phase have a variety of extra Maths and Afrikaans classes after school to support the learners who need extra didactic support.
Supporting every learner to achieve their academic potential is a priority in our school and we make every effort to support our learners to become academically, emotionally and socially well rounded people who exhibit resilience and confidence in all areas of their lives.
