Series 41: 12. Deaf, Little and Loud

Deaf children are still falling behind their hearing peers in school. This See Hear special, presented by Radha Starr, investigates the importance of access to sign language from a young age. For the first time in the programme’s history, cameras are rigged in a primary school classroom with deaf children to see how well they respond to a series of exercises led by Alysha Allen, a renowned deaf teacher, and observed by two guest experts, Dr Kate Rowley and Dr Patrick Rosenburg.\n\nWe learn the importance of facial expressions and communication between teachers and deaf students, and we witness a full immersive education experience as Alysha leads a series of exercises ranging from storytelling to building blocks. In between the tasks, we go home with some of the participants to find out more about their backgrounds and family lives.
