Inspired by Child of Our Time, the programme has been revisiting a group of four deaf youngsters every year to follow their progress. The children are now six, and are all enjoying thriving social lives outside of school.

Amie is still using her cochlear implant, and takes part in an after-school games club. Yasin, who also has a cochlear, has been enjoying 'Nature Detectives' activity group, and is also starting to learn Arabic so that he can read the Koran. BSL-user Lucy has been trying out new activities with hearing children - football wasn't a big success, but she's loving swimming. And Aidan has made the switch from sign language to an oral education at a mainstream school, and is making great progress at his theatre group.
