We need to talk

We are proud to have contributed to the ground-breaking national report on the future of Oracy education in England, published by The Oracy Education Commission.

At Abbey MAT, we have embedded our ambitious oracy strategy into all our schools to become a talk-rich Trust, supporting our students to grow in confidence and articulation.

"if – once and for all – our education system is to narrow the achievement gap between children from advantaged and disadvantaged backgrounds, we are convinced that oracy has as foundational role to play as reading, writing and mathematics. It is the fourth ‘R’."
