At Cotsford Primary School, we’re all about turning chatter into a superpower! With oracy taking center stage in our curriculum, we’re on a mission to sprinkle the magic of purposeful talk all over our classrooms. Our secret sauce? A well-oiled oracy machine that’s been planned, designed, modeled, scaffolded, and structured to help every learner chat away with flair and confidence. By weaving oracy into every nook and cranny of our curriculum, we’re setting kids up to become confident, articulate chatterboxes in the four fabulous strands of oracy.
We’re on a quest to help every student at Cotsford Primary Primary School unleash their inner voice superstar. With oracy, students will blossom in confidence, articulacy, and learning prowess. Our top-notch oracy education is the golden ticket, empowering every student to holler their way to success in school and beyond. Because let’s face it, whether they’re future presidents or party planners, effective communication is the key to nailing life’s challenges!
We want children to be able to share their opinion whilst being able to respectfully challenge their peers so we have placed talk at the heart of our curriculum. Here are some examples:
