The equality impact assessment in British Sign Language is also available.

In 2023 Department for Education (DfE) consulted on proposed subject content for a new GCSE British Sign Language qualification.

This is an impact assessment on equality; whether the proposals had the potential to have an impact on those who shared a protected characteristic, and how the content could be altered to improve equality.

As well as the equality impact assessment you can also see:

• the government consultation response
• the updated BSL GCSEsubject content
