What will I be learning

The course will develop communication in BSL about real life, routine, and daily experiences. The learner will be able to deal with most routine communication and have enough understanding of grammar to cope with some non-routine communication. Learners should be taught a number of regional variations in sign language.
The qualification specification has been designed using the UK Occupational Language Standards 2010 at Level 2.
