Three deaf young people tell us their level of deafness, the support they get at school and how they would feel if it was taken away. Sign our e-petition to make UK MPs listen to their needs: epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petit...

Dodge Heavy Duty They had good speech therapists. Who they cut the funding to. So, the future teens you hear in the UK will sound just like the inner city deaf children in the USA.

we need a lot more support like these kids get. when i was in school i got only a couple of grand a year and i got 60% hearing loss on my left side as well as other disabilities as well and i got almost no help. i disability support changes and they start to help more people who need it

I'm Greg, i'm from America. (moderately deaf). For about 10 years, i have zero to no support for my deafness. Not until high school, ( still am in High school). I have been given some support through an F.M. which the school was unwilling to give me.

i find it a bit bad at my school because none of the teachers helped me at all so if i don't understand a teacher or the task that was set that i would have to put hand up for too long and after 10 min everyone would be halfway through the task, now I've given up on putting my hand up for ten min ill put it up for a little but if no teacher comes i sign to my friend a lot so she tell me what is going on, i feel sorry for her because my school is very bad at knowing what were signing and they'll tell us off which don't blame them they don't understand but all of them have at least done lvl 1 bsl and my friend wont sign to me now and then because people make fun of our signing especially the middle finger, i also get picked on because of my speech i am a little hoh in my left ear,but right ear is ok but i also have LSD AND LPD (language speech disorder and language processing disorder) my own parents will get annoyed slightly because the don't understand me my dad knows sign language though and my sister is learning... however our school is mainstream but i have lot of deaf friends in RBHIP (recourse base for hearing impaired pupils) and continue sign language learning on wednesdays and i know teach year 7 in a club (I'm yr 9)

im taylor and am 15. i am wondering if i should get the cochlear implant because i am deaf in both ears.. im scared to get them because im scared of what hearing will actually sound like. i go to a regular high school and have a translator come in, but it gets a little annoying having them follow me around all day. should i try the implant?

Aren't there kids that are orally deaf ? Why aren't they signing ? I have.a neurological disability called Auditory Processing Disorder which means that the part of my brain used for hearing is impaired. Anyone here, have that level of deafness ?

Hi there - deaf young people are all different and so don't all use the same type of communication. Some use British Sign Language or Sign Supported English, or speak or use a mix of all them. The young people in this video all decided to use speech in this video.

So... "support" here means hearing assistive devices and speech therapy. Is learning sign language considered support for the NDCS?

Hi Paul Bourgeois - in this context support means anything that a child or young person needs to help them access education.
