DAHIT
Welcome to DAHIT (Deaf And Hearing Impairment Team)
Allerton Grange is a resourced school for deaf children (we use this term to refer to all children with an identified hearing loss). Children are taxied in from all over the city if they would benefit from more support than could be offered in their local mainstream school. We have a child-led approach, so tailor our communication method to best meet the needs of the pupil, whether that is spoken English, sign supported English (SSE) or British Sign Language (BSL). All pupils within the resource provision will have the opportunity to learn BSL from a native user if they would like to. They will also have the opportunity to gain qualifications in BSL (which are equivalent to a GCSE).
If you have any further questions or would like to book a personal visit please send an email to konniefenwickrasche@allertongrange.com
We look forward to seeing you.
Konnie Fenwick-Rasche, Lead Teacher of the Deaf
