An exceptional school in Sierra Lerone is using a very special technique to  encourage deaf children to speak. St Joseph's School for the Hearing Impaired uses the Maternal Reflective Method, a special technique based on how mothers communicate with their children. The school -the only one of its kind in Sierra Leone- has been providing education for children for thirty years and allows for the social inclusion of its students. They acquire the spoken and written language and many go on to do vocational training after finishing middle school.
