Is developing oracy a key focus area for your setting? Do you already have the Early Talk Boost materials that aren't currently being used? Or are you a school that would like find out more about Early Talk Boost and invest in the resources?
With the introduction of the new national Oracy Framework from September, schools are increasingly expected to take a more structured, intentional approach to developing children’s spoken language. This two-part twilight training demonstrates and directly supports the key strands of oracy by building vocabulary, sentence structure, attention, listening, confidence and purposeful talk through engaging, small group sessions.

Early Talk Boost is a highly evidenced, targeted intervention delivered by an early years practitioner to a small group of children (aged 3- 4 years old) who have delayed language development. Evidence shows that this intervention boosts children's language skills to help narrow the gap between them and their peers.

Early Talk Boost provides an effective and evidence-informed way for settings to demonstrate the impact of EYPP funding, supporting disadvantaged children to make measurable progress in communication and language.

If your school or setting does not have the Early Talk Boost resources, or is missing some key elements, these can be purchased prior to the training date. Please let us know when you book your place so we can support with this.
