HI Consultation

Consultation about our Hearing Impaired Provision

DWHS has included an additionally resourced provision for pupils with Hearing Impairment for a number of years. The number of pupils requiring this provision has declined over time and there are now no students within the provision. In partnership with Ealing Council, the Governing Body is therefore consulting about whether to formally close the provision, because it would be educationally and financially unsustainable to restart it for a small number of pupils.

The consultation document, which provides more information about the proposal, is available from this webpage. All stakeholders are welcome to share their views through the online questionnaire that is available here. The consultation runs until Friday 25th October 2024 after which the Governing Body and the Council will consider the responses and decide whether to continue with the closure proposal.

To reassure you, the closure of the provision would not affect the education or pastoral support provided to any of our students.
