All of the Interpreters that we arrange for deaf students are NRCPD registered. 

NRCPD is The National Register of Communication Professionals working with Deaf and Deafblind People.

All BSL Interpreters that are registered with NRCPD must abide by a Code of Conduct, have DBS Clearance and Professional Indemnity Insurance (PII).

There is also a complaints procedure for service users, which ensures that Communication Professionals are held accountable to their Code of Conduct.

NRCPD support training professionals and, overall, ensure that a high standard of work is maintained. When choosing an agency to work with, it’s essential to check they work with NRCPD registered Interpreters ONLY, to confirm the Sign Language Interpreter or other Communication Professional they provide you with, is at a high standard.
