At Abbey Multi Academy Trust, we are passionate about the value of providing a high-quality oracy education for our young people. Since beginning our Trust's oracy journey at Bishop Young Academy in 2018, we have worked in close partnership with Voice 21 resulting in an ambitious oracy strategy to become a talk-rich Trust.
We are proud that our dedication and commitment to the oracy imperative has been externally recognised. Bishop Young Academy is accredited as a Centre of Oracy Excellence- an accolade only held by one other secondary school nationally.
As a Trust we are passionate about empowering leaders within each of our schools to develop an innovative oracy curriculum and to value the opportunity as teachers of talk to undertake evidence-based research on the impact of a high-quality oracy education on our young people.
We welcome you to spend some time looking through our case studies and national projects. If you would like any further information on our oracy journey, please get in touch.
