Our Methodology

The underlying success of the turnaround methodology can be ascribed to the following three core elements namely:

1. Our core educational principles are the compass that gives the methodology purpose and direction for instructional leadership.

2. A Skills Mastery Methodology to improve the teaching and learning of mathematics.

3. A Unique Skills Methodology Assessment (SMA) Methodology to shift instructional practice and lesson planning by implementing SMAs for just 10 minutes every day.
