Implementation strategy

Being an international school, GEMS Wellington Al Khail has a large and varied cohort of learners, crossing a wide range of ages, backgrounds, ethnicities and learning abilities.

""We've found, as a department, that Bedrock has been great to really embed core vocabulary. It has been well received by the team as well as by students because they can now make so many cross-curricular links with the vocabulary they are learning.""

Bedrock Learning was introduced to GEMS Wellington Al Khail by their Vice Principal, after she had used it extensively in her previous role in the UK. The team at the school have become passionate users of Bedrock, in particular the subject-specific vocabulary content within the Mapper module. Teachers are implementing Bedrock in the classroom, for homework, as well as for personalisation and intervention diagnostics.

Staff at the school have worked closely with Bedrock to ensure the rollout of the platform has been high impact and low effort. Students are now receiving personalised and quality interventions were needed, with more able students now having multiple pathways for more challenging activities and building cross-curricular connections.
