Make sign language part of the National Curriculum

Make sign language part of the education of all children, from nursery age onwards.

Why is this important?

Making sign language part of every child's experience will help to reduce the exclusion of deaf and speech impaired children and adults, but the benefits will be to all children e.g. on brain development, vocabulary, empathy and expressiveness and to society generally e.g. more inclusion, increased understanding between deaf and hearing communities and individuals.
