The Covid-19 pandemic has hindered oracy and language development. Talk The Talk is back in schools, supporting students to transition from lockdown to the new normal. We are offering our suite of workshops throughout August to support summer oracy catch-up. Information on our summer school support is available here. You can read our Covid-19 policy here.
Innovative Whole Year Approach
Talk The Talk work with whole year groups as well as targeting individual classes because peer support is essential to embedding long-term oracy benefits and cultural change.
Individual Student Support
Students receive the support, stretch and challenge they need to flourish with a 1:30 trainer to student ratio in our oracy workshops.
A Long-Term Intervention
A package of resources and follow-up support to ensure sustained benefit from our workshops.
External Evaluation
External evaluation adds reassurances that your students receive maximum impact from their workshops.
A Popular Oracy Intervention Across The UK
We’re one of England and Wales most popular providers of oracy intervention – working directly with 31,424 students in 228 secondary schools across 86 LEAs in 2018/19.
Professor John MacBeath, University of Cambridge:
“The evidence points very persuasively to a highly successful intervention, in particular for shy and reticent students, helping to increase their skills and confidence.”
