Effective Learning Strategies

At Judgemeadow we believe in: being kind and helping others, respecting each other, being organised and disciplined and working hard

Introduction to Effective Learning strategies

We understand that by expecting children to work hard, we must teach an engaging curriculum. We are therefore committed to using the most effective learning strategies. The effective learning strategies, central to teaching, learning and reviewing at Judgemeadow, are:

  • Spaced practice
  • Interleaving
  • Retrieval practice
  • Elaboration
  • Concrete examples

You can find out more about each of these strategies below or by visiting www.learningscientists.org.

Students are also taught, and given the opportunity to practice metacognitive skills (learning how you learn) through the metacognition tutor programme and this is interleaved throughout their lessons at Judgemeadow. Below is information and examples on metacognitive skills:
