My colleague, Professor Neil Mercer, has recently published his brilliant new book: Oracy – The Transformative Power of Finding Your Voice.
It’s written for a general audience and looks at oracy in a broad context.
Get hold of your copy to dive deeper into
how spoken language is an essential part of what makes us human
what oracy is, and what it isn’t
the problematic concept of ‘talking proper’
and much more besides.
Neil’s book provides food for thought not just for teachers and leaders, but for your friends and family too. It’s available now at all good booksellers.
“At school, I learned how to calculate the area of a triangle, but not how to make a good speech, chair a meeting or work well in a team.”
Including some holiday-themed questions… Is ice cream for breakfast really a good idea?!
