According to the https://oracy.inparliament.uk/speak-for-change-inquiry – Speak for Change Inquiry launched in 2019, there is compelling evidence to show the educational benefits of effective and purposeful talk at every stage of schooling, and how a greater focus on oral language improves outcomes for the most disadvantaged students.
In response to the needs and wants of educators and learners alike, and with support from https://www.artfund.org/ – Art Fund, PHM is recruiting a freelance workshop developer to work on a new oracy and confidence building workshop currently named ‘Speak Your Truth’. This workshop is already in the initial stages of development, and we are seeking a freelancer to continue with this. Working with PHM’s Learning Officers, we would like you to develop both a half day and a full day version of the workshop.
You will then run testing workshops with groups of young people and children from both formal and informal learning groups. These workshops will mainly be based at the museum, though some sessions may need to take place in the groups’ own settings. You will collect and collate feedback from learners and group leaders to inform the development process, and whether it will be offered as a half or full day workshop as part of the new Learning Programme.
