Select an area on a UK map (eg North) to bring up a list of schools for the deaf.  Schools with websites include a link to the site.  It can be used to

  • increase pupils' awareness of the name, type, age and location of different schools for the deaf

  • increase the pupils' awareness of different types of communication
