The researcher investigated the management of multi-grade teaching for optimal
learning in Gauteng West primary schools. Ten participants, including school
principals, heads of departments and educators participated in individual and focus
group interviews and in observation of multi-grade classroom contexts. Findings
revealed that educators involved in multi-grade teaching feel overwhelmed by
challenging work conditions pertaining to large learner numbers and a lack of
adequate didactical resources. This is exacerbated by a lack of professional
development by means of tailor-made training for multi-grade teaching and the
presumption that educators teaching such classes must merely change the monograde teaching format of the curriculum themselves for applicable implementation in
a multi-grade teaching context. This leaves educators socially, emotionally and
professionally isolated. Recommendations include the involvement of seasoned
educators with expert knowledge and experience of multi-grade teaching to present
training sessions constituting advice and support to inexperienced educators involved
in said teaching. / Die navorser het die bestuur van meergraadonderrig by laerskole in Wes-Gauteng vir
optimale leer ondersoek. Afgesien van individuele en fokusgroeponderhoude met
skoolhoofde, departementshoofde en opvoeders, is waarneming in
meergraadklaskamers gedoen. Volgens die bevindings bemoeilik groot klasse en ʼn
gebrek aan didaktiese hulpmiddels meergraadopvoeders se taak.
Meergraadopvoeders voel hulle geensins opgewasse teen hierdie
werksomstandighede nie. ʼn Gebrek aan opleiding in meergraadonderrig en die
veronderstelling dat opvoeders die eengraadformaat van die kurrikulum in ʼn
meergraadformaat kan omskakel, vererger sake. Opvoeders is van mening dat hulle
maatskaplik, emosioneel en professioneel in die steek gelaat word. Daar word
aanbeveel dat gesoute opvoeders met kennis van en ervaring in meergraadonderrig
onervare opvoeders oplei en adviseer. / Monyakisisi o dirile dinyakisiso ka ga go ruta dikereiti tse fapanego go fihlelela bokgoni le tsebo tikologong ya go thekga dinyakwa tsa baithuti dikolong tsa phoraemari go la Gauteng Bodikela.
