DISTRICT SHOWCASES Show the Progress in DBE3 Partner Schools

Most of the 25 DBE3 extension districts in six provinces have conducted district showcases to show the progress in DBE3 partner and non partner schools. The participants in the showcase meetings included representatives of district government and of non-partner schools. Students’ work, learning media, lesson plans and photographs of lessons were displayed. School principals, teachers, district facilitators and students made presentations about the changes that have happened in their schools. Besides this, in many districts, there were visits to partner schools for participants to observe the learning processes. Below are brief reports about the showcases in two districts.
