Why More Oracy?

Why More Oracy?​

The training was inspiring! The trainer really engaged and encouraged the students throughout the whole workshop. It was fantastic to watch the progress of students who would usually be too shy to speak up in a classroom.
Mary Greaves St Peters RCHS - North Yorkshire
This was a great opportunity to reflect on just how important oracy is in our classrooms. The workshop is not only great value, but a profitable way to spend two hours learning about strategies to effectively eliminate, or manage, some of the barriers that face our students.
Ms RedmanLeeds West Academy – Leeds
I've been teaching for several years now and would really have benefitted from this earlier in my career. There seem to be so many NQTs out there, and they will really need this sort of training when we start back in September as they will have had so little practice in the classroom.
Ms RedmanLeeds West Academy – Leeds
A really motivational up beat workshop. I would highly recommend this organisation. Communication before the event was very good and the speaker really tailored the workshop to the pupils' individual needs. All made progress and good use of humour!
Ms DoreeOutwood Shafton - Barnsley
10 out of 10! The course was very relevant for teachers, touching on essential aspects of the oracy. The Trainer demonstrated well what Oracy is all about: humor, good elocution, a trusting tone, personal anecdotes, connecting with your audience and making the workshop interactive.
Ms Vogel-SmithCastel Recruitment – North Yorkshire
Enthusiastic and supportive delivery ensured that the students enjoyed the workshop and gained lots from it. A variety of tasks meant that students remained engaged and focused throughout. It was very successful – thank you!
Ms HillyardHowden School – East Riding
Students were really engaged and found value in the workshops. The trainers were excellent at building confidence!
Ms AhmedNorth Durham Academy – Durham
Excellent session, Clear signs that the group had the chance to learn, adapt and reflect upon useful structures for speaking confidently.
Mr WalfortNorth Durham Academy – Durham
Students really engaged in the content and were more confident in speaking. Even EAL students with additional language barriers were able to able to engage and complete speeches fully. Brilliant session!
Ms NichollsParkwood E-Act Academy - Sheffield
The students were very engaged and really enjoyed it! Students were empowered and keen to get involved. The structure really helped them.
Ms LangstaffSt John Fisher CHS – Harrogate
Michael from More Oracy came to Outwood Academy Bishopsgarth to deliver a session to our early career teachers. This was incredibly well received and we look forward to working with him again.
Mr Gaunt Outwood Academy Bishopsgarth - Middllesborough
A fantastic two day event at Parkwood E-ACT academy, the pupils confidence grew massively throughout the course of the day! Would definitely use again!
Mr HendersonParkwood E-ACt Academy - Sheffield
Very positive and encouraging, good pace, excellent response to individual needs and reading the room to keep students motivated and engaged.
Ms Chadwick Benfield School – Newcastle Upon Tyne

Changing Lives

The ability to communicate effectively is an essential ingredient to both success in school and beyond. Our Oracy Workshops aim to develop communication skills and align with Ofsted’s recommendations. Effective Oracy is crucial for success in education and the workplace.  We believe, More Oracy workshops can directly impact students’ progress, engagement, and social mobility. 

An Intervention​​

The pandemic has widened the language gap across all ages, with 44% of teachers agreeing that school closures have had a particularly harmful impact on the spoken language development of students eligible for pupil premium. Our intervention offers hope for these students, emphasising confidence, social interaction and wellbeing. We have been instrumental in schools recovery curriculum plans and Covid 19 Catch-up Premium.
