BridgeEd trains teachers in Quintile 1–3 public schools to master myEncore — SA's leading CAPS-aligned school management platform — completely free to the school.
No more manual report cards. myEncore generates fully compliant DBE reports from captured marks.
No special hardware needed. Android, iOS, or Huawei — if a teacher has a phone, they can use myEncore.
Facilitated in isiXhosa, isiZulu, Sesotho, and English. Technology that actually makes sense.
Every teacher earns a recognised certificate. Every school earns official myEncore Certified status.
“The gap is not the tool. The gap is the human support required to implement it in schools that have been left behind.”
The technology to transform school management already exists. What has always been missing is someone willing to walk through the door and make sure it sticks.
Most township and rural schools manage everything on paper. Attendance registers, mark sheets, report cards — all done by hand. Teachers spend hours on admin that should take minutes. And when a teacher leaves, years of learner data walks out the door with them.
Most rural teachers are SASAMS-compliant in name only. Errors are widespread and DBE compliance is at risk.
Hours spent on paperwork every week are hours that should be spent teaching. Burnout follows.
Families in townships and rural areas receive almost no real-time information about their child’s progress.
No continuity between grades, terms, or teachers when staff moves. Every year starts from zero.
A four-phase model built for lasting adoption — not just exposure. Every phase is designed so that when BridgeEd leaves, the school stands on its own.
5-day on-site workshop for every teacher. At the school. In their language. Hands-on from day one.
We return 3 weeks later to fix what real practice exposed. The questions that only come up once you’re doing it.
Monthly check-ins with the school’s identified champion. WhatsApp support channel. No teacher left behind.
Practical assessment. Recognised certificates for every qualifying teacher. Official myEncore Certified School status.
If your school is under-resourced, overlooked, and led by a principal who wants more for their teachers — BridgeEd was built for you.
We travel to schools in deep rural Eastern Cape, KwaZulu-Natal, and Western Cape. Distance is not a barrier to quality teacher development.
Kasi schools deserve the same digital infrastructure as Model C schools. We bring the same standard of training to every community.
Any public school with limited digital support and a principal committed to change. If the will is there, we provide the skill.
We partner with corporates, foundations, and government programmes so that every school gets world-class training at zero cost to them.
BridgeEd is designed to be funded sustainably through a blend of corporate CSI, government channels, and development partnerships.
South African companies with B-BBEE obligations fund teacher development as part of their Social and Enterprise Development commitments. Education is the most fundable CSI category.
Our programme is working toward ETDP SETA accreditation, enabling schools and districts to access SETA funding for teacher training that counts toward CPD requirements.
We partner with education-focused foundations and international development organisations committed to closing the digital divide in South African schools.
As an authorised myEncore training partner, we work with the platform’s team to co-fund access to schools in communities they cannot currently reach directly.
We actively apply for education grants from SA-focused foundations including Zenex, Ikusasa, and the Michael & Susan Dell Foundation.
School-specific crowdfunding campaigns invite community members, alumni, and parents to directly sponsor digital training for their local school.
Whether you’re a funder, a school principal, a circuit manager, or an organisation looking for a credible education impact partner — we want to hear from you.
Whether you want to fund a school, refer a school, become a training partner, or bring this programme to your district — reach out and we’ll respond within 24 hours.
