My second book, Oracy: 100 Ideas for Secondary Teachers, is now published.
I’m hugely grateful to my co-author and colleague Alan Howe for his insight, challenge and support as we created this together.
“A masterful account that simplifies the processes, this excellent companion is streamlined and considered. The reader is invited to dip in and out often. A single page will transform a classroom, placing listening alongside speaking. It is accessible, inclusive, with engaging ideas and multiple extensions.”
“An essential guide for embedding oracy across the curriculum. Grounded in research and rich with strategies, it supports every teacher to build confident, articulate learners.”
“An engaging, thoughtful and inspiring collection of strategies to add to my teacher tool kit. I can’t wait to include some of these new ideas in my lessons. Certainly a resource I’ll have to hand on my desk during planning sessions!”
“What a resource! Short, simple and easy to understand ideas that you can dip into as and when you want to improve your practice.”
