Moving towards using positive language around deafness/hard of hearing

BATOD and  the d/Deaf Teachers of the Deaf group have written this document ‘Moving towards using positive language around Deafness / Hard of Hearing’.

This document is intended for BATOD members to support them in approaching LAs or settings where the terminology hearing impaired (HI) is used. You may wish to add to this or amend according to the needs or context of the area/setting you are approaching.
