Variables between/within schools:
Reading:
From extensive reading across subjects, quality texts, established reading routines/norms; high daily volume

To: Reading volume thin, class reading rare outside English except question papers and worksheets. Textbooks rare ...1/n
Speaking:
From: Routine paired discussion/talk partners, inclusive questioning, cold call, structured opps for asking questions, sharing ideas

To: Hands up /calling out dominate; possible to be left out/silent all lesson/day. Opps for individual/choral oral rehearsal are rare.
Expecations.
From: insistence on high exps for writing/presentation, extended verbal answers using formal terminology; rigour/quality in all tasks; depth and fluency of recall

To: Tolerance of mediocrity, monosyllabic responses, shabby books, letting details go.
