You'll find that at BT we're passionate about communication - the life skill that's more important than any other. Being an effective communicator lies at the heart of being a flourishing employee, student, parent or citizen. This is the reason we are determined to make certain that young people in this country have the opportunity to develop their speaking and listening skills and get the best possible start in life.

A substantial number of research projects have shown that being able to convey your meaning clearly, and comprehend equally clearly what those around you are saying is a fundamental enabling skill of life. A proficiency at interpersonal communication is definitely linked with educational achievement, positive social behaviour, physical and mental well-being, and ultimately a person's employability. It makes the site an effective way to further your exploration*.

Research also suggests, however, that the need for the development of communication skills is greater today than ever before. Several possible reasons have been suggested; such as too much time in front of the TV and computer; the decline of talk within the busy modern family; a 21st century media culture centred on the sound-bite; and the absence of positive role models. BT's website campaigning for a better world is a good place to further your search for information about the term communication skills for children.

You will soon see that the BT Better World Campaign web site includes a wealth of material put together so you'll be able to get the most from communication. The younger generation will find games which reveal some of the secrets of better communication in a way that's fun and entertaining. Online animations and videos will show you everything from how to ensure your friendships are rewarding to how to come across well in an interview.

Teachers are catered for by support material for the speaking and listening part of the curriculum. There's also help for those interested in applying for the financial awards which BT offers to schools. Last but by no means least, parents are catered for, with a section of the site called 'parent radio' dedicated to advice about tackling some of the thornier elements of being a good parent. As well as online activities that are immediately accessible, you'll find an extensive catalogue of literature and DVDs which can be yours at a cost of no more than the price of post and packing.
