Secondary Oracy – Speaking Up!

/in /by

Secondary Oracy Package

Speaking up, The comprehensive, school-wide key to Oracy for secondary teachers.

At PTSA we are a leader in a nationwide movement to get secondary schools speaking again. We firmly believe not just in the central importance of Oracy across all subjects and levels, but in the range of new and exciting, results-based methodologies for teaching it.

We are delighted to share our comprehensive and systematic 9-module programme with our colleagues across our city. Speaking Up offers fresh, eye-opening ideas and techniques which you can put into action straight away. An opportunity to make oracy the learning priority it deserves to be.
