Oracy across the curriculum: a one day conference
Friday 23 September
Mercers' Hall - Ironmonger Lane, London, EC2V 8HE
Event Details
Should oracy be given the same status as literacy and numeracy?
How do oracy skills support learning across the curriculum?
This event is designed for teachers and provides an opportunity to learn more about oracy across the curriculum. Teachers in all sectors, and of all subjects, are warmly invited to attend.
Speakers will include practising teachers who have implemented wholeschool approaches to oracy. They will share details of the triumphs and tribulations they encountered during the process, and will offer recommendations to others who are starting out. Representatives from the English Speaking Union, the Communication Trust and Debate Mate will explain how these organisations can help teachers to enrich the quality of communication across all subjects in schools. Findings from academic research on oracy in the classroom will be shared by Oracy@Cambridge. It is hoped that the opportunity to meet and converse with others will help teachers to develop a professional network for future support and collaboration.
