Recruitment for Covid 19 Research Project (England)

Posted in News

Request from colleagues at University of Roehampton

“We are currently recruiting participants for a British Academy-funded research project on deaf and vision-impaired children’s experiences of schools’ measures to reduce the risk of COVID spreading with regard to children’s communication and socialisation needs. We are specifically looking for deaf/vision impaired children and young people attending mainstream programmes (Key Stages 3, 4, 5), who follow the same curriculum as most other students in their year. Hearing and seeing siblings aged 11-18 are welcome, too!”
