Bramble Learning Model
If you want to learn more about alternative learning models, you’re in the right place. Since 2018, Bramble has designed curriculum framework and learning processes for over 5,000 children and educators.
Content
The Bramble learning model combines localised knowledge and global perspectives to conceptualize whatever is being learnt. Based on learners' interests, they explore varying subjects such as mathematics, languages, art, humanities, science and technology, entrepreneurship, values and community development.
Methodology
We promote lifelong education in a fun and engaging way. Using Project Based Learning and other best-fit pedagogy, we engage creativity and critical thinking in every learner. We give every learner a platform to develop their capabilities. We focus on the mental, social, physical and emotional development of every learner.
Assessment
Assessment is very practical and personalized. Every learner measures what has been learnt with their set milestone. Comparison and unhealthy competition is discouraged.
Our story
The first model was founded in Arikanki, Ibadan, Oyo state. Bramble Learning Space is the first alternative school in Nigeria which offers holistic learning to children and youth from rural and marginalized communities. The open learning community offers children and youth within the local villages an opportunity to develop their dream. Through facilities such as a design studio, makerspace, sports centre, farm, and library; each child is encouraged to champion his/her own journey. It is an open campus with different shapes of bamboo sheds for discussion. Every bramble learner is exceptional; they exhibit good communication and social skills, problem-solving attitude, collaboration and creativity.
