@PageTopsy @BloomsburyEd This book is so pertinent and relevant at a time when Oracy is rightfully reclaiming its crown in the curriculum. Crammed with brilliant and nuanced activities with clear rationales. Every teacher should read this deeply practical guide. Keir Starmer needs this to shape policy.

It strikes me P4C is the perfect tool to help learners make sense of history as described in this article

"Most of the excuses I made...

-not enough time
-not enough money
-not enough knowledge
-not the right connections

...were just ways to avoid the real bottleneck: Not enough courage.
There was always a small step I could have taken—if I had the guts to take it."

Another #pupilvoice comment about #p4c

[Nick Chandley @NickChandley]

A favourite reflection from a 9 yo girl on #p4c. Said it’s important because it makes her think and she’ll be too busy to think when she gets older, so she needs to do lots now. I asked when ‘older’ is and she said ‘15’. Speaks volumes. #philosophyforchildren @MichaelRosenYes

What do we want from learning in our post pandemic curriculum? “P4C helps people do the right thing." - Year 4 pupil

[Jonathan Hannam @HannamJonathan]

Yes! I totally agree if impact was neutral overall and 47% didn’t implement it fully - the 53% probably had a positive effect size!

[Pie Corbett @PieCorbett]

@C_Hendrick @EducEndowFoundn If 35 of the 75 schools were not doing P4C then they were not researching the impact of P4C - as 47% were not doing it. It would be interesting to know if there was an effect from the 54% that were doing it.
