Review of Bedrock Learning
Oct 2022
I think Bedrock is a really useful tool to improve vocabulary but it is difficult to monitor and assess progress holistically as part of curriculum. It is also expensive so I would recommend depending on the needs and context of the school but I am in agreement that it is a very useful too when implemented well.
Rachel Courtney found Bedrock Learning:
- Slightly reduces teacher workload“Increase on teacher workload through having to check for homework + give consequences but reduces workload in teaching new vocabulary in lessons to make more time for curriculum content.”
- Significantly reduces attainment gap
- Slightly improves school processes
- Significantly improves attainment“Students are able to understand and decode more complex texts in lessons, which increases attainment. Students also gain a breadth of knowledge and cultural capital through the text types they read.”
- Moderately builds student knowledge“Mythology - students often gain an understanding of key myths using bedrock before studying this in lesson”
