Make communication support compulsory for all pre school deaf children

Closed 361 signatures

What the petition asks

I decided to start this petition in support of my 3 year old son Zavier who is profoundly deaf. Zavier attends pre school for 24 hours per week, however my local authority will only provide Zavier with 15 hours of communication support per week. For 9 hours per week he is unable to communicate.
