Founded a decade ago by two English teachers, and having worked with thousands of schools, Bedrock Learning sees first-hand the daily challenges educators face in developing each student's background knowledge and language skills. Strong reading and writing skills lie at the heart of academic success, as well as future success, and we see the incredible impact that language mastery has on a child’s confidence, progress, and life chances. We believe that the way we teach reading and writing across the curriculum requires a rethink. So, we have built a platform for the classroom of the future, designed to bring about systemic transformation. Students are mastering the core language skills they need, reducing the cognitive load of reading and writing tasks, and unlocking the curriculum in every subject. We call it liberating learning. There is a direct link between a learner's vocabulary size and their academic progress. Vocabulary gaps widen as learners progress through school. The gaps often begin very early on in a child's life, and they are compounded by a lack of reading. Researchers, academics, teachers, and politicians are now in agreement: we must do more to ensure that we do not allow social disadvantage to become educational disadvantage. Literacy is the great leveller.
