Oracy is much more than speaking confidently. It is about learning to express ideas clearly, listen carefully, ask questions, explain our thinking, build on others’ ideas and disagree respectfully. These skills support learning across the curriculum and help children communicate successfully with others.

We will be introducing the Future Ready Oracy Framework, explicitly teaching speaking, listening and communication skills and giving children regular opportunities to practise them across the curriculum. The framework also prepares children to communicate effectively in a changing world, including face-to-face, collaborative and digital contexts.

Linked to this work, each week we will include a poster in Dunalley News to encourage family talk and discussion at home. We hope you enjoy sharing ideas, exploring different viewpoints and getting everyone talking!

Ultimately, we want our children to understand that their voice matters and to have the skills and confidence to use it well.

Clubs

Attendance & Punctuality

Children only get one chance at  school; making the most of it enables them to succeed and flourish later in life.

Arriving at school on time is also vital.  Arriving late to school disrupts the child, their peers and teacher.  Punctuality is also essential at the end of the school day and the late collection of children is taken seriously.

Absence Reporting

Please inform the school of your child's absence by 8:45am on the day of absence.

Our preferred method is to report absences via Edulink by selecting Links & Communication > Report an Absence.

Alternatively, you can call 01242 512391 and leave a message on the absence answer machine.

To help prevent the spread of infection, children must remain off school if they have a temperature or for 48 hours after their last episode of vomiting or diarrhoea.

End of the Day Collection Changes

If your child is being collected by someone different or going home with another child, please send a short note to their teacher on that day.

If arrangements change during the school day, please email dunalley@dunalley.gloucs.sch.uk or call 01242 512391
