If answers to your questions can’t be found in this FAQ, and it’s critical to making your decision, you can email us directly at join@voice21.org. Your School Relationship Officer will meet with you when you sign with Voice 21 - so this ‘Welcome Meeting’ is a great time to discuss your approach and settle outstanding questions. Secure your place as a priority, if you can.

Yes, you’ll be able to access a limited version of the Exchange with full access granted from September. As a reminder, please plan for 90 minutes, per staff member, per term (3 main terms) to access the Exchange for their training.

We’d love for you to see our support in action but also know that there won’t be time to set this up before we close places for September 2025 – sorry! Part of your benefits as a Voice 21 Oracy school will be access to our existing network of 1,200 schools so there will be plenty of opportunities for visits and networking!

Submit the form to request the registration form or email join@voice21.org to ask for the form. Once you submit the Registration Form and e-signature will be issued for you to sign - at this stage, your place is fully confirmed.

There is never a single ‘right’ time to start oracy - it’s very likely already happening in pockets, anyway! The majority of our schools have initiatives running alongside our support, we know that you’re not ever just working on one single thing. We’ve designed the membership so that it can be moulded to weave and underpin other areas of school life. We can talk through what this might look like as we support you to put together your bespoke implementation plan.

If they’ve got time to watch Session 2 that’s the best place to hear our support in a nutshell. If you need evidence of the impact oracy has on outcomes for students, explore the Voice 21 Impact Report. It highlights oracy's impact on student confidence, engagement and outcomes.

Great question and one without a single answer! We recently spoke to four Voice 21 Oracy Schools (watch the On-Demand webinars here) who’ve used our CPD, resources, training and consultation to focus on different priorities, based on the starting points for their students. 

Once you have submitted your order form and provided your e-signature, your membership place for September is confirmed - congratulations, you’re officially a Voice 21 Oracy School! Keep an eye out for an email from your School Relationship Officer who can answer any ‘getting started’ questions you may have and provide you with early, restricted access to our online Learning Platform; the Exchange
