Supporting Students with a Hearing Impairment
The Lavinia Norfolk Centre was established in 1975 principally as a centre for students with a hearing impairment. The centre supports students with a range of hearing loss and includes students with cochlear implants. A small but skilled team of staff ensure that all students with a hearing impairment are fully included in all aspects of the school and are supported to achieve to their maximum potential.
The H.I. team have a specialist room containing a range of audiological equipment. This includes hearing aid test box, listening kits, sound level meter, all the radio aids and relevant equipment for use by the students plus spare batteries and other testing equipment.
The HI team consists of a Qualified Teacher of the Deaf, and two specialist LSAs, all 3 whom are BSL trained, level 2 and above. One LSA is a qualified technician being responsible for the team’s preparation of audiology in the morning; the other LSA is responsible for BSL across the school and is trained up to level 3 BSL. The team have close links with the local hospital audiological teams and cochlear implant centres, as well as local feeder schools and the primary Sensory Support Centre at River Beach, Littlehampton.
