Oracy

Here at Ivy Bank Primary School, we believe spoken language to be fundamental to the achievement of children. We strive to develop spoken language skills through the curriculum. We believe that ‘talk is essential to children’s thinking and learning and to their productive engagement in classroom life especially in the early and primary years.’

We thrive to empower all children to use their voice for success in school and in life. We aim to improve the verbal communication skills of all pupils and inspire them to be confident and expressive public speakers.
