    1. Small/Multigrade schools do not have the wcg broadband. We have to use our own ISP`s. We had connectivity difficulties. Better now that we changed our package.

    2. The delay with placing ITE’s at the school caused the operation of the lab to be stalled. The ITE’s facilitate in the lab as many teacher do not know how the lab operates.

    3. The major challenge was Eskom. The WiFi gets interrupted and it becomes to slow.

  1. Question 2:
    What issues have you, as school (leadership, staff, learners) experienced that makes it difficult to participate in the KIlT eLearning programme?

    1. Admin barrier for us because we do everything our self at school.
      The fact that we are a multi grade school and everyday brings it own challenges.

      Meetings with the wced and subjects advisors.

      Last is most of us are from George and we must drive home after school, and some of the meetings are in knysna.

      Some teachers even mention the petrol prizes to attend meetings.

      The environment that we are teaching in.

    2. As a grade 12 teacher we have a lot of commitments during and after school like study sessions and extra classes. Our school has quite a full program. Study sessions after school are from Monday to Thursday and over weekends. It takes a lot of preparation and unfortunately when we prioritize we have to give preference to our matriculation.

    3. Multigrade schools always have a challenge in selecting which workshop/training to attend. Same person must attend. Wced gets preference…

    4. The delay of our ITE’s to the schools limited the use of our lab. ITE’s help facilitate in the lab as our teachers aren’t all fully aware of how the lab operates and ITE’s help with this barrier.

    5. Time is a major barrier. Most of the time the same educators attend the workshops. Sometimes there two workshop on the same day…

    1. It is a good system but yet again I don’t feel like it is fair towards multi grade schools.

      Because circumstances are different from school to school.
      So it’s difficult for us to allocate teachers to attend every meeting.

    2. It does not work for our small schools. I think schools must be grouped according to their size and the criteria be reviewed.

  2. It’s an excellent motivation tool but it is a bit frustrating competing with schools that have more teachers on the program compared to a school that is limited to a certain amount of teachers.

    1. I thought about just making 5 teachers count towards the point system until I was wowed by the level of their commitment to come to training. Bigger schools can also earn extra points by doing on demand training. Time to get inventive!! 😉
