The National Deaf Children's Society, BATOD and NatSIP have worked together to develop a briefing on the specialist needs of deaf children and the role of Teachers of the Deaf. This seeks to summarise the role of Teachers of the Deaf (ToDs) in meeting the unique and specialist needs of deaf children and young people. It also provides evidence, statutory context, and key considerations for anyone involved in reviewing or commissioning specialist education services for deaf children.
Happy New Year!
The NatSIP Steering Group wish you a Happy New Year and all the best for 2026.
Thank you to for your support of NatSIP during 2025 and for all you do for children and young people with deafness, multi sensory and vision impairment.
We look forward to hearing from you and seeing you at NatSIP and NatSIP partner events in 2026.
