Evaluation comments from Senior Management following a ‘Strategies for School Improvement’ workshop at Effiduase Secondary School, Effiduase, Ghana

‘There has been a shift from the lecturing method to a more student-centred approach to teaching. Teachers organize their lessons in a manner that would engender greater student participation - a very advantageous technique that allows students to learn more as they do more… Without a doubt, there has been a marked improvement in students’ grades…’

Headmistress, Wesley Girls’ High School, Cape Coast, Ghana 

‘We were advised on ways of organising details in various subjects such as using mind maps, spider diagrams and flash cards… there has been significant improvement in the effectiveness of study of most girls… It seems that the traditional “chew pour-forget” method is fast losing its significance… Teachers are a remarkable catalyst to the adherence to this new method of study… girls are now used to giving presentations and working in small groups for maximum concentration… Many more pay attention to their mistakes…- an activity called “Response to Feedback”…’
