Speak Up
Learn to talk the talk
Communication skills are some of the most valuable life skills a student can learn to set themselves up for a strong future. Whether it’s personal relationships, social interactions or work situations, clearly communicating your ideas is the key to success.
SpeakUp is a program designed to teach year 11 and 12 students communication, presentation and leadership skills. This nine-week course is practical, packed full of experiential learning, and has tangible outcomes for students. It can be run on- or off-site to suit your school and your students.
How does it work?
Each week, each student will have the opportunity to speak and actively develop their skills. Some students will present a prepared project (of around 5 minutes) and others will practise their impromptu speaking skills. Students will also practise delivering feedback in a guided, supportive manner.
