Speak Together

Inclusive oracy and communication activities that value every meaningful way a pupil can take part — speech, AAC, signing, symbols, gesture, pointing and non-verbal communication.

Discuss a pilot →
Four pupils listening and communicating together, including a pupil using an AAC symbol tablet.
Every way of communicating belongs in the conversation.

Core focus

Speaking, listening, turn-taking, explaining, asking questions, expressing preferences and building confidence in everyday classroom communication.

Inclusive by design

Participation is not defined by speech alone. Activities can be adapted around a pupil’s established communication system and give adults clear prompts for modelling and wait time.

Possible activity formats

  • Daily question or choice
  • Show me / tell me / point to it
  • Explain your thinking
  • Partner listening prompts
  • Communication challenges using AAC, signing or symbols

What a pilot can test

  • Who participates more often
  • Staff confidence in inclusive oracy
  • Whether pupils initiate communication more readily
  • How well the activities work across different pathways
