Ceri Morgan @ceri-morgan.bsky.social · 24/09/2025Really looking forward to our new Reading Group! The first paper is a great starting point for us to think about how we define childhood and what it means to be a child, and how this might inform the relationships we build and the ways we work with children in our research. Hope to see you there! 020

Ceri Morgan @ceri-morgan.bsky.social · 03/06/2025Such an important message, rooted in taking children seriously, treating them with respect and nurturing their interests. If we want children to become lifelong learners, this is surely the way to go? 051
Reposted by Ceri MorganSpeech Bubbles CIO @speechbubblescio.bsky.social · 02/06/2025As drive for more Oracy in education continues we ask: Is oracy for all children—or just some? Does it value every voice, or exclude those with communication needs? Celebrate diverse dialects—or center only Standard English? Oracy must build belonging—not barriers. #OracyForAll #InclusiveEducation 033
