What is BT is passionate about? Communication - life's number one skill. Being an effective communicator is a critical part of being a flourishing employee, student, parent or citizen. This is the reason we are determined to make sure that young people in the UK have the opportunity to develop their speaking and listening skills and receive a secure start in life.

A great deal of research has indicated that having the aptitude to convey your meaning clearly, and comprehend equally clearly what others are expressing is a crucially important thing to be able to do. Being good at interpersonal communication is unquestionably connected to physical and mental health, socially desirable behaviour, educational attainment, and at the end of the day, job prospects. It means that this is an ideal place to continue your study*.

But research also suggests that the requirement to ensure that communication skills are developed is greater today than ever before. Blame has been attributed to a number of factors; including long periods of time watching TV and playing videogames; the lack of proper conversation within hectic modern families; a 21st century culture which may appear to undervalue dialogue; and the shortage of positive role models in society. The BT Better World Campaign site is recommended as a source to further your search for information about the term conversational speaking.
