The BLPP Oracy Intent and Progression Map has been carefully designed and structured to ensure all of the children from Foundation Stage to Key Stage Two receive and experience rich oracy opportunities throughout their school life. The plan has been created in line with the BLPP curriculum and ensures a progressive approach to the development of speaking and listening skills, which should be embedded as the child grows. Rich experiences provide a vital, shared stimulus ensuring every student has a meaningful “hook” to anchor new vocabulary and ideas. These authentic opportunities transition oracy from a theoretical exercise into a practical tool, supporting students to adapt their communication for real-world audiences and unpredictable contexts. By embedding these moments across the curriculum, our schools transform talk from a passive classroom requirement into an active engine for cognitive growth and social confidence.
