The challenges in international schools

Across international schools, we know many students are often learning English as well as learning in English. This presents a unique challenge for teachers.

We also understand that within each international classroom, there is a wide range of students with different needs and experiences. Against this backdrop, a personalised solution that supports and challenges each student is crucial. Here’s how Bedrock can help you address those challenges:

  • Enabling access to the curriculum

    In line with all IB and IGCSE programmes, we understand that language is central to the development of critical thinking and learning.

  • It’s hard to know where to start

    Bedrock Learning is a comprehensive, interactive digital literacy curriculum, perfect for preparing students for IGCSEs...

  • Immersing students in high-quality language

    All teaching is contextualised in rich, authentic, original fiction and non-fiction so you can be sure your students are regularly reading a wide range of quality texts.

  • Ensuring correct pronunciation

    All Bedrock content is audio-narrated by native speakers, so students hear accurate pronunciation of new language.

  • Measuring improvement

    All content is assessed, giving teachers the insights they need to track this crucial area of teaching and learning.

  • Communicating progress to parents

    The parent dashboard gives parents and guardians the ability to monitor their children’s progress and engagement.

"I use Bedrock with my Year 7 English Language and Literature group… many of whom speak English as a second or third language. What I like about the program is, it assesses their reading level and then targets building their vocabulary from there, so it is a personal, tailor-made exercise. The students are excited about what they are learning and we often talk about the new words as well as try to use them in work outside of Bedrock. It helps the reluctant reader be exposed to vocabulary they would otherwise miss. I would recommend it to any institution, national or international. I would not hesitate to use it with our Year 7 and Year 8 students next year."
