Language handicap is the biggest hurdle in the education of the hearing impaired. Research reveals that hearing impaired persons commit more syntactic errors as compared to semantic errors. Though language acquisition is innate for human beings, it needs a proper environment to develop. Hence, the investigator formulated a grammatical assessment tool and compared the performance of three hundred upper primary class hearing impaired students with certain variables like the use of a hearing aid, type of management of the school, size of theclass and residential vs non-residential set-up. The results showed that regular use of a hearing aid, private schools (both aided and unaided), size of the class (up to ten students) and a non-residential set-up had a positive impact on the performance of students. This study will help planners, administrators, academicians and teachers to formulate appropriate policies and teaching strategies in improving the academic performance of the hearing impaired; as language proficiency is the basis of better performance in other subjects and all round development in school
