Polka Theatre has launched a new two-year teacher development programme exploring the impact of drama on oracy skills for pupils.
The new drama project, Talking Tales, will support Key Stage 1 teachers to strengthen their students’ speaking and listening skills, particularly targeting those disproportionately affected by the pandemic.
The scheme will run from September 2024 to July 2026, focusing on developing practice for teachers and senior leadership teams in six primary schools in the borough of Merton, Kingston and Ealing.
The programme will assist those involved with a combination of teacher CPD sessions, practitioner-led drama workshops for pupils, teacher resource packs and mentoring and support teams.
