We’re hardwiring oracy into the revised National Curriculum, so speaking, listening, and communicating will light up every classroom.

ALT Oracy to be given equal status to reading and writing - as a brand new strand of the English curriculum. A photograph shows a teenage boy and girl wearing school uniform speaking to a class of pupils.

We talked about 'Oracy' for BBC Radio 4 Word of Mouth we recorded today. I was talking to Amy Gaunt from Voice 21. Listen out for it on @BBCRadio4

We continued this year’s focus on’ inclusive oracy classrooms’ this afternoon with a fantastic workshop on oracy and EAL. An inspiring and empowering session to round off the term for our hub.

Year 4 and 5 have been doing fantastic work with great outcomes around performance in poetry this week. We are really proud of how engaged our pupils have been and how they have developed their presentational oracy.

What a year as a hub, culminating in a fantastic event at City Hall, with teachers presenting research projects around the ways that oracy can enrich learning across the curriculum.
Huge thanks to @klparadine of @voice21oracy for her inspiring keynote speech. @_THEpartnership

We had another fantastic network meeting today.
Our Hub project this year is truly up and running, with teams of teachers working collaboratively to develop oracy practice in different curriculum subjects - history, English, maths, science and art.

The launch of the @oracycommission report ‘We Need to Talk’ is an important moment in oracy education.
We are so proud that two children from one of our hub schools @CubittTownPri spoke at the launch, representing the culture of oracy in Tower Hamlets schools. @_THEpartnership

We need to talk about...the benefits of oracy education beyond the classroom.
October 8, We need to talk.
Our Oracy Hub is back for 2024/25. Over 30 Tower Hamlets primaries collaborating to enrich oracy learning and teaching across the borough!
This year we’re working in teams to ‘turn great talk into great learning’ in a range of subjects including maths, science, art and history!
As the new term begins, for anyone interested in oracy, this is well worth a read.
Earlier this year we commissioned a series of exploratory papers on issues related to oracy education.
Ahead of launching our final report later this month, we’re pleased to share ‘Speaking Volumes’ with you.

A huge congratulations to all of the schools who were presented with bronze and silver oracy awards today.
Looking forward to even bigger and better things next year!
