Overview

This session is focused on enhancing students' speaking skills while recognising the strong link between teacher wellbeing and student wellbeing, particularly as anxiety around communication continues to rise. As teachers experience higher levels of stress, it’s important to support their ability to guide students in managing their own anxieties, particularly in the context of verbal expression and engagement. As communication is key in both academic success and personal development, this session will provide educators with practical tools to help students thrive in speaking activities across the curriculum. By prioritising teacher wellbeing and strategic lesson planning, we create a space where both teachers and students can manage anxiety, engage effectively, and develop stronger speaking abilities for the future.
