Oracy

What is oracy?

Oracy is the ability to articulate ideas, develop understanding and engage with others through spoken language.

Our Brookhouse Vision

Oracy is a vital part of our school identity and a vital part of every lesson.  We want all members of our community to have the skills to be confident and effective communicators.

We are a Voice 21 Oracy School

With the support and expertise from Voice 21 (a UK initiative dedicated to promoting the value of oracy in education), our aim is to provide a high quality oracy education that enables children to articulate their ideas, develop understanding and engage with others through spoken language.  Oracy is embedded throughout all the curriculum areas throughout the school day.  We believe oracy is fundamental to our pupils’ success both in school and in their life beyond school and are therefore committed to building and developing a culture of oracy throughout our curriculum, school and community.
