Royal School for the Deaf

Jump to: navigation, search

The Royal School for the Deaf, on Ashbourne Road, Derby, is a day and residential school which provides deaf children aged from 3 to 19 with access to language (English and BSL), literacy and all curriculum areas.

It has enjoyed several visits by members of the Royal family over the years. Princess Margaret visited on June 28, 1973 to officially open new buildings at the school.

The Duchess of York was a visitor in 1994 and Queen Elizabeth II spent some time there in 1997 on the same day that she officially opened Derby County's Pride Park Stadium.
