Accelerate Progress with Oral Language

Engaging with student experience and potential to develop purposeful, meaningful oral language skills

The Accelerate Progress with Oral Language programme provides the approaches and structures teachers need to plan for and engage with students in developing oral language skills. As a potential-based programme, it responds to students' prior knowledge and experiences while supporting growth and development. Anchored by a clear routine and essential dimensions of effective teaching practice, this programme also recognises the importance of variety: it changes the motivation, igniters, focus and tasks regularly and targets a range of contexts and purposes in building speaking and listening skills.
