A child’s oral language development is a key foundation for attainment and future success right across the curriculum. It's also integral to a child's confidence and wellbeing.
That’s why, at Pearson, we’re committed to supporting schools on their oracy journey. We want to help set every pupil on the road to achieve their potential with the ability to articulate their thoughts, ideas, and opinions with confidence – no child should be left behind.
