Oracy for Lunchtime Supervisors

Focus: Catholic Life
For: Lunchtime Supervisors and staff that support lunchtimes

Description:

This session is designed to develop knowledge of the importance of purposeful Oracy at lunchtimes.

The session will introduce Oracy and will equip participants with simple, practical strategies that can be used at lunchtimes to develop positive, purposeful talk during unstructured parts of the day. The session will explore techniques that encourage conversation through high-quality interactions.

We will consider priority actions and next steps to support the development of Oracy at lunchtimes in your school.

Director’s Note:

The wonderful staff who support lunchtimes are often those with the greatest opportunity to connect with children. Empower them fully with this valuable training.
