More Oracy

I invited 'More Oracy' into our school (Archbishop Holgate's in York) to work with a group of Year 10 students who really lacked confidence and resilience in speaking in public. We planned this intervention to take place in February 2022 with the AQA GCSE Spoken language endorsement planned for the following month and it had a huge impact. I was stunned at how in a matter of a couple of hours the programme leader had coaxed some of our most reluctant speakers into standing up and sharing information in a group. The session was so carefully scaffolded with a range of fun tasks that the students didn't even realise that they were public speaking and by the end 90% of them got up and delivered a speech to the rest of the group. It was fantastic and I would highly recommend 'More Oracy' as an intervention tool for any school or institution which needs support in developing oracy skills.

More Oracy delivered two very engaging sessions to students here at New College Pontefract, Wakefield focusing on confidence building and presenting skills. One student commented that they couldnt believe they had the confidence to deliver a presentation with no notes by the end of the session!

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!
