Oracy Programme
Oracy skills not only enhance academic achievement and employability, they also lead to the development of a whole range of social, emotional and interpersonal skills, including self-confidence, self-awareness, resilience and empathy. Having the confidence and skills to speak up and the belief that your voice has a right to be heard have been shown to enhance our sense of happiness and well-being, preventing the isolation that comes from feeling side-lined.
The oracy programme at The Langley Academy aims to empower our students with the ability to communicate by:
- Developing a broad and rich vocabulary
- Equipping students with the skills to communicate
- Supporting students to develop the confidence and self-belief to speak

Putting our boat engineering skills to the test! After our visit to the @River_Rowing Museum, we've been working hard designing and testing our boats. We finally hit the water to see if our creations were seaworthy. The results were absolutely fabulous #Engineering #TeamWork pic.twitter.com/SMMfvwli5H— The Arbib Education Trust (@Arbib_Ed) March 19, 2024
