Margaret-Anne is a Qualified Teacher of the Deaf (QToD) teaches Foundation and Key Stage 1 at a Hearing Impaired Unit at Cregagh Primary School, Belfast.  There are two Hearing Impaired Units at Cregagh Primary School and both took part in the programme.

Tracey Woods, CSSC Schools' Support Officer commented

“The commitment of staff, pupils and parents to the programme has been fantastic. It has been a joy to hear how the pupils of Cregagh Primary School have been progressing their sign language skills with the excellent support and encouragement of their teachers.
