British Sign Language (BSL) Level 2 Course
This qualification is designed to enable learners to develop their skills to communicate with Deaf people using British Sign Language (BSL) in a range of everyday situations. The qualification will allow learners to participate in longer and more varied conversations than at Level 1. The course will develop communication in BSL about real life, routine, and daily experiences. The learner will be able to deal with most routine communication and have enough understanding of grammar to cope with some non-routine communication.

Level 2 BSL consists of 3 units
BSL 201
BSL Receptive Skills
Learners can understand specific details from, and the general meaning of a range of information presented in sign language. They can understand standard signing, delivered at normal speed, with facial expressions, body language, etc.
BSL 202
BSL Productive Skills
It allows the learner to demonstrate their ability to present information in British Sign Language. Their language is generally accurate and they make only minor grammatical errors, which do not change their meaning. If they do not have the vocabulary, they find other ways of presenting information.
BSL 203
BSL Conversational Skills
This unit covers the learner’s receptive and productive skills, which will normally have been assessed in Units BSL201 and BSL202. It allows the candidate to put both skills together to demonstrate that they can understand and exchange information during a routine conversation with a BSL user.
