Children are boosting their confidence by speaking up in front of big audiences
CHILDREN AS young as five are tackling heavyweight topics such as Brexit and healthy eating thanks to an educational initiative that is empowering young learners in Birmingham to excel in public speaking skills.
Through a series of six-week modules, the Little Speakers Club is also developing the personal confidence of children, some who have previously had a poor level of engagement with their peers.
“We have had a girl who did not say a word for three weeks,” said Syeda Shah, a locally based former science teacher, who launched the initiative under the Femtinos banner.
