6. BSL Data 

Principle:  We will embed a cross-university approach to collecting, documenting, analysing, and reporting on BSL Data at the University of Edinburgh.  We will use the data to enhance our programmes and services for deaf, deafblind and hard-of-hearing BSL staff and students, as well as for BSL learners.

Actions:  

The University will: 

  1. Find out what experiences deaf and deafblind students had during and after their studies, e.g. what BSL support they received during and after their studies and life after graduating. 

  1. Find out who uses BSL at different levels in our university and beyond, including across the Scottish school and college system. 

  1. Support the Scottish Government and other universities in gathering data on the number of BSL users studying and working in Scotland.
