## Recent parent reviews

- **2/5** — Not what we hoped for: “My friend has 2 beautiful deaf children who currently get specialised education at Laycock primary school in Islington, a mainstream school with a specialist unit that provides education to deaf children. However, with costs rising and enrolment falling, the school is trying to find savings, and the headteacher is proposing cuts targeted at the deaf provision, with key specialist roles likely to be axed.” *(Jan 2023)*
- **2/5** — Not what we hoped for: “The headteacher’s proposal to just put deaf children from years 4 to 6 into mainstream classes is unacceptable. Many children at the deaf unit have other special needs and would definitely not get the tailored specialised care they so need to keep learning and developing.” *(Jan 2023)*
