A briefing for commissioners (England) – The specialist needs of deaf children and the role of QToDs

Posted in News

The National Deaf Children’s Society, BATOD and NatSIP have worked together to develop a briefing on the specialist needs of deaf children and the role of Teachers of the Deaf. This seeks to summarise the role of QToDs in meeting the unique and specialist needs of deaf children and young people. It also provides evidence, statutory context, and key considerations for anyone involved in reviewing or commissioning specialist education services for deaf children.
The intended audience for this briefing is commissioners/decision-makers in England but it may be a helpful reference document more widely.
