In Schools

I work with schools in a variety of ways: developing parental engagement strategies, running parent sessions, and developing the full potential of the oracy pedagogy in your school - strategically, with CPD and support.

Oracy Matters: Online CPD

My Online CPD course: Oracy Matters, gives you all you need to get you started on your journey to brilliant learning using the oracy pedagogy as a foundation for everything you teach.

Initial Teacher Education

I bring my 30 years of experience as a Primary school teacher, and my passion for oracy, to my role in Teacher Education. This includes lecturing, teaching placement support, and assessing prospective candidates.

“Caroline is an excellent practitioner who is passionate about helping children to develop their communication skills whilst ensuring that they are happy and healthy.

She uses her wealth of experience to support parents of primary-aged children, giving them the confidence to engage practically with their children to support their learning.”
