The Myth: Students only need support in lectures

Student support is often associated with one thing, helping a student access a lecture, but university life is about far more than sitting in a classroom.

The reality is that students spend time contributing to seminar discussions, collaborating on group projects, attending exams and preparing for life after graduation. For Deaf, Hard-of-Hearing and Disabled students, accessibility plays a role in every one of these experiences.

True inclusion means supporting students throughout their entire journey, from enrolment to graduation and beyond.

For students in need of learning support, Clarion UK is here to help. ➡️ https://ow.ly/MwAh50ZVtiq

Happy International Day of Sign Languages🫶

Communication is about more than words. It's about connection, understanding, and ensuring everyone has equal access to information and services.

For millions of Deaf people worldwide, sign languages are essential for participation, independence and inclusion.

Today, we celebrate sign languages and recognise the importance of creating environments where everybody can communicate with confidence.

Have you ever felt unsure about how to communicate when a sign language interpreter is present? You're not alone.

One of the most common misconceptions is that conversations should go through the interpreter. In reality, the best approach is usually the simplest one: communicate directly with the Deaf person.

If you're unsure, here are some helpful tips on how to work with a sign language interpreter.

The Myth: All British Deaf people use British Sign Language

This is one of the most common misconceptions about accessibility for Deaf & Hard-of-Hearing people.

The reality is that Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing people communicate in many different ways. While BSL is the preferred language for many, others may use lipspeaking, speech-to-text reporting, note taking, Deaf Relay or spoken English.

That's why accessibility isn't about providing a single solution. It's about understanding individual needs and offering the right support. At Clarion UK, we work with organisations to help create accessible experiences that work for everyone.
