Make British Sign Language A Compulsory Subject Taught At Schools

Petition Details

British Sign Language being taught at schools could help millions of people who have problems hearing or can’t hear. We need to be able to communicate so that we can aid!

Additional Information

People hearing impaired and deaf people struggle every day, through lack of communication. If languages are taught why can’t British Sign Language? If you’re helping a person who doesn’t speak English, a translation app or google can help but this isn’t the same for sign language. There are more and more people with auditory problems and we must be able to communicate, to help, and to protect.
