The Difference EaziTeach™ Programme Is Having on Communities

Early Childhood Development (ECD) is essential to bridge equity gaps and overcome multigenerational poverty. PMT™ has increased its role as a partner to The Family Africa in expanding the coverage of quality ECD services.

The holistic nature of Early Childhood Development requires collaboration, consensus and partnership across different actors and sectors. Each development sector — health, nutrition, child protection, education, water and sanitation — has its priorities, but each sector also has a significant role to play in the development of young children. Each development partner can reach different audiences through various methods and individual strengths.

The EaziTeach™ Programme creates an opportunity for teachers to use their Android phones to connect to sponsored Smart TVs, with shared access to thousands of resources, reading schemes and numeracy activities. Using Smart TVs, we can make available curricula, posters, books and more that are otherwise out of reach for grassroots preschools. The programme is linked to our Children’s Enrichment Centre in a township, where children and teachers experience techniques first-hand and enjoy hands‑on indoor and outdoor activities. The centre also serves as our teacher‑training centre.
