The document advocates for removing the outdated “Hearing Impairment” label\, emphasizing terminology that reflects empowerment and inclusivity. This module would delve into the background of the Positive Terminology document\, tracing its development as a response to the growing recognition of the Social model of disability. It could highlight the importance of positive Deaf role models across various professions\, underscoring how their visibility inspires and challenges misconceptions. Central to the module would be the principle of being Deaf-led in discussions about deafness\, ensuring authentic representation and perspectives. Lastly\, it could address the value of hearing professionals engaging with Deaf professionals in practice\, fostering collaboration that exemplifies inclusivity and mutual learning.

Developing language and communication\, and social and emotional wellbeing in deaf CYP \nThis topic on Developing Language and Communication\, and Social and Emotional Wellbeing in deaf children and young people (CYP) will focus on addressing the crucial role of language acquisition in shaping their overall development and identity. It will delve into the challenges of language deprivation\, emphasizing the importance of early exposure to accessible communication modes to ensure linguistic and cognitive growth. The topic will explore bilingualism as a powerful tool in fostering both deaf identity and broader social integration\, allowing CYP to navigate and thrive in both Deaf and hearing communities. Various modes of communication\, including the comparison of Makaton\, which is a sign system supporting spoken language\, versus sign languages like BSL (British Sign Language)\, and Sign Supported English (SSE)\, will be critically analysed to highlight their functions and impacts. The topic will also tie these elements to the social and emotional wellbeing of deaf CYP\, illustrating how empowering communication supports their sense of belonging\, confidence\, and emotional resilience.

Building Cultural Awareness and Inclusive Practice in Deaf Education \nThis session focuses on developing cultural awareness and inclusive\, community led practice in Deaf education through real life experience and grassroots perspectives. Drawing on work across Deaf spaces in the UK\, Ireland\, and Europe\, the session explores how language\, culture\, identity\, and background shape how Deaf children\, young people\, and families experience education. Participants will reflect on how everyday decisions\, communication styles\, and professional expectations can either support belonging or unintentionally create barriers. Through discussion and practical examples\, the session highlights the importance of listening to community voices\, working across difference\, and learning from lived experience. It demonstrates how inclusive\, relationship based approaches strengthen trust\, engagement\, and learning outcomes. By the end of the session\, participants will have a clearer understanding of how culturally responsive\, Deaf led practice can improve learning URL:/event/save-the-date-batod-deaf-studies-pilot-programme-session-2a/ LOCATION:online ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/logo-for-BAToD-website.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20260507T160000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20260507T170000 DTSTAMP:20260326T001109 CREATED:20251121T083229Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260123T100239Z UID:39848-1778169600-1778173200@www.batod.org.uk SUMMARY:SDCF Community of practice mini meet - Preparation for adulthood DESCRIPTION:Save the date 7th May \nThursday 4pm – 5pm\, \nSDCF Community of practice mini meet – Preparation for adulthood \nFurther information to be published soon \n  URL:/event/sdcf-community-of-practice-mini-meet-preparation-for-adulthood/ LOCATION:online ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/logo-for-BAToD-website.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20260508T120000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20260508T130000 DTSTAMP:20260326T001109 CREATED:20260305T134527Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260305T134527Z UID:40777-1778241600-1778245200@www.batod.org.uk SUMMARY:BATOD East online event DESCRIPTION:BATOD East of England members are invited to attend their 2026 online event. \nSession title ‘The Latest on cCMV and HearGlueEar with Dr Tamsin Brown’ \nContact batodeast@batod.org.uk for the registration link and further information.

The history of Deaf Education (and local Deaf schools/provisions) \nThe 1880 Milan Conference marked a turning point in deaf education\, favouring oralism over sign language and shaping policies for decades. Conrad and Warnock later contributed significant insights into deaf education\, advocating for more inclusive approaches. The READY study further examined the effectiveness of various educational strategies\, reflecting the evolving terminology that acknowledges a range of approaches to deaf learning. Over time\, provisions for deaf students have shifted\, transitioning from specialist schools to resource provisions and mainstream education\, offering diverse opportunities for communication and learning. The impact of technology on deaf education has been profound\, introducing innovations such as cochlear implants\, digital hearing aids\, and improved accessibility tools\, reshaping how deaf individuals engage with learning and the broader world.

Deaf space \nDeaf spaces take many different forms. They can be organised in institutions\, such as clubs\, associations\, schools\, universities\, and conferences\, or come into existence informally\, such as cafés\, family gatherings\, or spontaneous encounters. They exist offline and online. Within these spaces\, deaf people connect through shared experiences and sign languages\, but they also set up spaces around specific shared interests\, backgrounds\, or life experiences in addition to deafness\, such as in queer deaf spaces\, or deaf spaces consisting mostly of migrants. Deaf spaces can be supportive and celebratory\, but they can also be exclusionary\, reflecting differences related to language background\, race\, class\, gender\, sexuality\, disability\, religion\, or migration histories. Exploring this diversity of deaf spaces shows how deaf people actively build environments that foreground sign language communication\, while also negotiating inclusion and exclusion in complex ways.

The ban of sign language in deaf education and the impact on deaf people’s lives today \nThe historic ban on sign language in Deaf education has had lasting consequences\, deeply shaping the experiences of Deaf individuals today. The exclusion of Deaf professionals from teaching roles led to white women being appointed as educators for Deaf children and young people\, often without lived experience of Deaf culture. This systemic shift contributed to audism—the belief that spoken language is superior—limiting opportunities for Deaf individuals to pursue careers and develop professional identities. The impact on Deaf children was profound\, as they were often deprived of natural language acquisition in sign language\, affecting their cognitive\, social\, and professional development. Even today\, Deaf professionals continue to navigate barriers created by these historical injustices\, working to reclaim spaces within education and beyond to empower future generations. The resilience of the Deaf community is evident in efforts to restore sign language’s rightful place in education\, combat audism\, and promote inclusive learning environments that respect Deaf culture and identity.
