Mary Hare School

Mary Hare School is the largest school for deaf children and young people in the UK, located in Newbury, Berkshire. We are a boarding and day school and we welcome deaf students from Reception to Year 13 (aged 4 - 19). Students are immersed in the English language, both spoken and written, without the use of BSL in our classes. Our pupils thrive on learning to use their voice and the use of English is really important. English is the language of the national curriculum and of the outside world. We want our students to have good language skills, helping them to achieve better grades. We believe this will give them more choice as they move into their futures.
