Rushmere has its own specialist teaching hub for children who are deaf or have a hearing impairment.
Our school houses a specially designed Hearing Impaired Unit, run by a fully qualified Teacher of the Deaf, along with experienced support staff also fully trained in sign language.
Children are referred to the unit by the Local Authority. The children receive a blend of intensive support in the unit but also participate in whole class and whole school activities at various times during their week. From time to time, Mrs Hughes & Mr Thomson (Teachers of the Deaf) may provide information for parents, to remind everyone of upcoming events. Please keep an eye on this space. |
