The ICTWAND oracy framework is based on over 10 years of working with schools on questioning, collaborative learning, speaking and listening skills, and metacognition, and draws on deep knowledge gathered and synthesized from a wide range of research. I have now made it freely available to schools.
Build teacher knowledge: The framework helps teachers to plan for both breadth and depth and its structure brings clarity to the demands of teaching oracy.
Progression and Assessment: Use the 7 key strengths to pin point more precisely the next steps of pupil development. Build a custom progression map for your pupils that takes account of your journey to date and current attainment levels.
Map skills opportunities into your curriculum.

If oracy is a development area for your school, you might also be interested in supporting resources for teachers to help them with planning, including a 4-quadrant system for lesson design and professional coaching.

Training
If you need support for developing an oracy solution for your school, you can choose bespoke support: auditing and strategic planning, advice and guidance, training for the oracy leader, training sessions for staff, with onsite and remote options.
