ITE SIG free conference on Friday. The thread was language and talk. We heard from: Alice Reedy, Alastair Daniel and the Oracy Hub in Tower Hamlets
What a wonderful day for SIG members. @teresacremin.bsky.social @navangovender.bsky.social @rshargreaves.bsky.social

It is with great sadness that we heard of the death of Alex Wheatle. Booked as our Keynote Speaker in 2024 but health prevented that, and we can’t now get a hoped for second chance to hear an inspirational, outstanding author and speaker. He leaves a wonderful legacy of work.

A wonderful obituary for Jane Ogborn in The Guardian today. We will be putting something up
on @engmediacentre.bsky.social website soon, to recognise her extraordinary contribution to EMC, to English as a subject, and to the teaching of it. www.theguardian.com/education/20...

This is worth a re-post I think. Very important message - much more so than endless arguments about rows being better (A tiny research study in a special school is being shared on X to prove rows are better full stop.) Chairs can be swivelled - this is what matters most 👇

The 'Talk for Learning aspect of oracy...What should all teachers of every subject & all phases know? This from the Bullock Report (1975) should be posted up, in large format, on every Staffroom wall.

Mary Bousted is great for this, but I hope there’ll be conversation & collaboration with the curriculum & assessment review commission panel as these two things are intrinsically interlinked. Half the problem in education is too many things operating in isolation without looking at the big picture.
