CRIDE 2021 reports

The latest Consortium for Research into Deaf Education (CRIDE) reports into education provision for deaf children in England, Northern Ireland and Wales have now been published.

These can be found online at www.ndcs.org.uk/CRIDE. They will also be available soon on the BATOD website at https://www.batod.org.uk/information/cride-reports/.

We anticipate that the report for Scotland and a UK-wide summary will be available in the next few months.

These reports set out the findings from CRIDE’s national survey of local authority specialist education services for deaf children and includes the latest figures on the numbers of deaf children, Teachers of the Deaf and much more.

We would like to thank all those who responded to the survey and who have helped inform the reports.

A preview version of the 2022 survey has been sent out to heads of services; if colleagues have not received this, please contact This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. The final survey will be circulated in early February.
