Appalling to see so many deaf people having to explain that MAKATON IS NOT A SIGN LANGUAGE in #SignLanguageWeek
Makaton are signs adapted from BSL (in a highly problematic way) used with spoken English. It's actually English with key word signing, not a real sign language.

Samantha Morton. That speech. That power suit amidst a sea of gowns. Advocating for children in care after horrors she experienced in the state system. Bravo. One of my favourites getting her dues. Unique & indefinable,her performances in Morvern Callar & In America are stunning.

Who will teach this?
PGCE secondary courses starting sept 2024 already advertised but currently you cant apply as a BSL specialist. We need to do PGCE this Sept. But it isn't available to us

We’re pleased to announce a new collaboration with @SignHealth, the Deaf health charity.

Hello @VotePursglove @david4wantage @GillianKeegan. My son is deaf and we are trying to learn BSL to be able to always communicate fully with him. Not only do we have to pay for this privilege, but in Cornwall we don’t even have access to level 2! 1/2
