At our school, oracy is at the heart of everything we do. We believe that every child should develop the confidence and skills to communicate effectively, express their ideas clearly, listen thoughtfully to others and engage in meaningful discussion. Oracy is woven throughout our curriculum and school life, enabling pupils to deepen their understanding, build vocabulary, think critically and collaborate successfully. Whether explaining their reasoning in mathematics, debating ideas in English, presenting findings in science or reflecting on their learning across the wider curriculum, pupils are given regular opportunities to develop their speaking and listening skills. The information below highlights how oracy is embedded, ensuring that every child leaves our school as a confident communicator, ready for the next stage of their education and beyond.
