This session will empower staff to shape students' communication skills, focusing specifically on oracy strategies. In the session, practical strategies will be shared, modelled and practised and staff will leave with a range of resources ready to use in the classroom. Findings from contemporary research will be identified & discussed. Strategies will draw on findings from the Oracy Commission Report, and examples used in the Voice21 programme. The aim of the session is for staff to feel confident when teaching, modelling and assessing students' oracy skills, enabling the students to become confident and effective speakers in the classroom and beyond.
