An especially interesting and enlightening conversation with Barbara Bleiman 🎓 Education is Conversation here. Well worth a listen for more depth into different aspects of oracy.
You're very welcome!
If any other schools in Greater Manchester (or nearby) are interested in hosting the displays in the future, let us know. Manchester Metropolitan Uni Manchester Centre for Research in Linguistics Arts and Humanities Research Council
Thanks so much to Rob Drummond for lending us the displays on his fantastic accent & dialect research project - Manchester Voices. They look great!
