"Oracy is truly inclusive. It's not about speaking perfectly but about giving students the confidence and skills to express themselves authentically." - Laura Brogan

Laura Brogan is the National Education Lead for Phonics and Early Reading at Twinkle Educational Publishing.

She is passionate about helping children find their voice by starting where they are, which oracy is an absolute aid for.

In this episode Laura:

Talks about having her Oracy Epiphany when she taught in a school based in a deprived area of the North West of England.
Shares how being taught oracy in her school would have helped her realise that communication doesn't have to be rehearsed perfection; authenticity is key to communication.
Recalls how playing snakes and ladders (and other board games) encouraged a child who wouldn't speak in class to gradually share his passion with his peers through one-to-one oracy learning.

We also look at the link-up between Twinkl and the Cambridge Teacher Research Exchange (Camtree) and find out what the oracy-led inquiry and professional development programme means for educators and young people.

Laura also answers the question set for her by Bob Coenraats in the last epsiodes.

Oracy And Beyond is the podcast from Your Podclass - the oracy-led podcast workshop for education settings.

It is still in its own early years stages, but my absolute passion is to share some of the experience I have had going from an unconfident child to a broadcaster, so I am looking to bring Your Podclass to as many settings as possible.

If you'd like to discuss the possibility of me bringing it to yours, email [email protected]
