Speaking
Most children learn to:
- speak competently and creatively for different purposes and audiences, reflecting on impact and response
- explore, develop and sustain ideas through talk.
Speaking is one of the 12 strands of learning. The objectives for speaking can be read across year groups to identify progression within each strand. These objectives reflect end-of-year expectations for each of the year groups. They can be used to support planning to ensure that children make the expected progress over the year and across years. Covering these objectives will allow children to reach the Early Learning Goals for communication, language and literacy and the appropriate National Curriculum levels at Key Stages 1 and 2.
