BRIDGE + SUPERCURRICULUM
Extend the platform around your school’s priorities.
Connect the core learning journey with inclusion implementation and academic enrichment. Explore the purpose of each add-on and how they can form a coordinated school offer.
The core: learning and progress
GRIP brings curriculum context, teaching, homework, guided practice, assessment, recovery and future pathways together. This is the foundation for a connected experience across the school community.
The add-ons extend that foundation into distinct areas of school provision. Their purpose is to connect additional educational work with the learner’s broader journey, rather than leave inclusion and enrichment as isolated activities.
BRIDGE: from inclusion policy to classroom action
An inclusion policy becomes useful when it shapes everyday planning and teaching. BRIDGE is the inclusion implementation add-on: it connects policy and planning with classroom action, monitoring and evidence.
For a school, this creates a way to discuss provision as a continuing process. What support is intended? How does it translate into teaching? What evidence should be reviewed? Who is responsible for the next action? These are practical questions for educators and leaders to work through together.
Professional judgement remains central. The add-on supports the organisation and review of inclusion work; educational decisions about an individual learner remain with the appropriately responsible people in the school.
Supercurriculum: give academic curiosity direction
Academic enrichment takes learners beyond the immediate demands of a lesson. Supercurriculum adds structured enrichment, personalised challenge, participation analytics and portfolio evidence.
The emphasis is on purposeful exploration. A learner may investigate an idea, read around a subject, develop a question or reflect on what a challenging experience has taught them. A portfolio gives the resulting work and reflection a place within a longer academic journey.
For teachers and leaders, participation and evidence help move the discussion beyond a list of activities. The important questions concern engagement, depth, reflection and progression: what has the learner explored, and how has their thinking developed?
How the two add-ons complement each other
Inclusion and enrichment address different needs, but both benefit from clear planning and meaningful review. BRIDGE focuses on implementing support; Supercurriculum focuses on extending academic engagement. Connecting them to GRIP keeps the wider learning journey in view.
A school can consider the combined configuration where it wants to coordinate learning, inclusion and enrichment. That decision should follow an understanding of existing provision, staff responsibilities and the educational priorities the school wants to advance.
An example of a coordinated learner journey
A learner may need support with one part of their curriculum while showing strong curiosity in another. A joined-up approach allows the school to discuss both needs. Targeted support can address the gap, while a structured enrichment opportunity gives the learner room to develop an interest.
This illustrative example avoids treating pupils as a single category. Support and challenge can coexist, with teachers reviewing the evidence and deciding what is appropriate. The goal is a richer understanding of the learner over time.
Choose the configuration with a clear purpose
Begin by identifying the work that needs better continuity. The core configuration focuses on learning and progress. GRIP with BRIDGE adds inclusion implementation. GRIP with Supercurriculum adds academic enrichment. The combined edition brings all three areas together.
Use the edition links below to explore the available applications. The school’s implementation discussion should establish the intended scope, curriculum context, responsibilities and review process before routine use.
