Introduce sign language education in all Early Childhood Development schools.

The Issue

Deafness is not a learning disability. This means that we can integrate deaf pupils into mainstream school systems globally. Given the right inclusive curriculum, resources,tools and training to Educators and Teachers, deaf pupils can attain the same learning outcomes as hearing pupils.

What about starting with a policy to teach sign language in all Early Childhood Development centre's where language and communication skills are nurtured. Lets create a world free of communication barriers at all levels of education, so that all children and young people can achieve their full potential.
