Welcome to Frank Barnes School for Deaf Children

We are a very successful school, recognised by Ofsted as ‘outstanding’, with a national and international reputation as a centre of excellence for deaf education.

Children from across Greater London and from many different backgrounds attend our school from the age of 2 – 11 years.

We have a bilingual philosophy which means that we teach using both British Sign Language (BSL), the language of the Deaf community, and English, the language of the hearing community. We value these languages equally and want our children to be competent in both.
