A timeless tool for effective communication, civic participation and a means to deciphering the human condition, rhetoric is now enjoying a revival in schools. This book positions rhetoric as an essential component of the curriculum, helping learners to read and think critically, listen actively and speak persuasively. It shows how rhetoric empowers young people with the knowledge and skills to become informed and critical citizens. Drawing on the authors’ expertise in teaching, curriculum design and academic research, the book considers what it means to teach rhetoric and why there is a rationale to do so with fidelity. It offers guidance for implementing rhetoric across the curriculum. It offers a progression model to help students understand the social structures of language through the subjects they already study with a sensitivity to the subject content. Essential reading for teachers and school leaders, this pioneering text provides everything needed to revive rhetoric in schools, enabling students to thrive both academically and in the wider world.
