Inclusion & environment ## How they support every child SEND provision Children with special educational needs and disabilities are supported very well. Staff training and collaboration with a wide range of professionals, such as health visitors and social workers, have led to improved outcomes for children. Outdoor space Children develop a good range of physical skills. For example, they move confidently in the large outside space. They push along on bicycles and cars and find new ways to move, such as hopping on one foot and sidestepping around obstacles. These newly learned ideas are then transferred into children's independent play when they join their friends in the play kitchen outside. ## Google Reviews of Baby Ducks 4.3 (6 Google reviews) ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a-/ALV-UjVRzUsEJSK9kH0AuFwrY31E5TrkCYeQbQHUczLc2sLT3w_nPJQK=s128-c0x00000000-cc-rp-mo) EMLD 3 years ago AMAZING!
