Chatta is an approach that we are using inside and outside the classroom to reinforce our teaching. The approach has very quickly become central to our practice and what we do in lessons. Teachers are extremely positive about it.

Chatta enables ALL children to become the best learners that they can be in a fun and interactive way! The approach encourages greater vocabulary in full sentences and the children are attentive, engaged and confident.
