Our Classroom Practice programme of support will enable you to develop and implement an oracy-rich approach to teaching and learning across your school.

Our Classroom Practice pathway is designed to develop a vanguard of expert oracy practitioners in your school who develop a whole-school approach to oracy teaching and learning and model effective oracy teaching practice in their classrooms, supporting colleagues across the school to develop their practice.

 Students will have greater engagement in learning, an increased understanding and awareness of what makes effective oracy and improved oracy skills, particularly during whole-class and group discussion.
