Hi and thanks Peter: I've sent the info to our local school for deaf children and will also send it to the Head of the Sensory Loss Service.

Thanks for sharing it and it is good to see some work on D/deaf children. I will certainly share it among friends and acquaintances in the deaf community and friends who are teachers for the Deaf.
I went to a school where we must not use sign language and I found most of my class-mates and other children telling me that they do not understand the teacher. Therefore, communication is a vital tool, not the fact that deaf children must try and speak and "listen"!
Regards
Reg
