At The Coppice Primary School, we believe that oracy is central to learning. It underpins academic success, supports social and emotional development and enhances our children’s life chances and choices. We want our children to be effective communicators who can express their thoughts, feelings and ideas confidently and articulately. 

Our school is a place where everyone’s voice is heard, where contributions are valued and where opinions are respected. We are proud to be a Voice21 school, with our approach to developing a high-quality oracy education embedded across all areas of the curriculum. Our approach to oracy is also progressive across all year groups from Nursery through to Year 6.  Therefore, it truly is a whole-school approach.
