Noisy Classroom

Who we are

Helping your pupils become persuasive speakers, critical listeners, analytical thinkers and engaged citizens.

We are a training organisation dedicated to promoting and supporting the use of speaking and listening in the classroom.

We help teachers use a range of debate, discussion, dialogue, role play and enquiry as part of the Noisy Learning experience.

A noisy classroom can be both inspirational and rigorous; we love all of the vibrant, active work going on inside it and campaign against the idea that only a silent classroom is an effective one.

All students should leave school as confident and articulate adults and our team of experts is dedicated to fostering those skills.

As toddlers, we learn to speak by listening to those around us. Speaking & Listening is essential throughout our education, whether the learning outcome is Reading or Writing, Science or History, a target-led GCSE examination or free-wheeling creative work. The workplaces of tomorrow will be based as much on face-to-face discussions, Skype calls or videos as on traditional reading and writing.

We prodcue resources, lead workshops, train teachers, run local and national programmes and support partner organiations to help young people build the skills and cofidence they need to be effective communicators.
