How can Cued Speech help at school?
Cued Speech can clarify spoken language wherever it is used in school. It is uniquely helpful with literacy. It can be used in different ways according to need. Sometimes a teacher of the deaf may use Cued Speech. Alternatively a learning support assistant may use Cued Speech to transliterate the speech of others (including the class teacher) within a mainstream school. It may be used 100% of the time or only occasionally to clarify sounds or to aid pronunciation. It can be very successful when used in a mainstream school where it allows a deaf child full access to the spoken language around them.
