Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Management and staff are quick to assess children when they first attend the setting. Their meticulous approach ensures that children with special educational needs and/or disabilities receive exceptional one-to-one support. Staff are highly attuned to each child's individual interests and development needs, embedding learning targets into each interest to ensure they access all areas of the early years foundation stage.

Outdoor space

Children excitedly share resources while they investigate flowing water outdoors. Children progress extremely well in their physical development, learning to use a wide range of challenging equipment safely; they climb walls, rope ladders and slides. They learn to balance on toadstools with their friends, and how to pedal a bike for the first time. The inspector observed the quality of education being provided, both indoors and outdoors, and assessed the impact that this was having on children's learning.

Horrible as they didn’t allow mums to join kids into the classroom for the first time they join! Staff always complained when I came to pick up the child!! They need to understand that they are KIDS!! instead of complaining, they should have trained theirselves accepted the nature of kids! Also, they never helped me as a single mum (and a PhD student) as they charged me even for days my kid didnt go to nursery and whats more, they charged £1 for every minute late!!! Nursery where my kid is in now is quite understandable as sometimes im late in the uni for a whole hour with no charge! People in this nursery are unbelievable :|

Not happy at all with this nursery, never was happy from the start, staff need more training and been nice and polite with kids, so so many bad attitudes in nursery from staff and all. I'm glade Allah help us to find a better nursery for our child. I had problems with so many things in this nursery, our child never wanted to go, every time something was happened to her in nursery, clothes dirty, wet, hands paints no washed, shoes wet, hurt her self or another kids scratch our kid. No focus on kids. They don't look after kids well enough that's what I have noticed and seen.
