Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities receive support from staff to meet their individual needs. Additional funding is used effectively to provide one-to-one time with children to build on their knowledge and skills.

Outdoor space

The inspector observed the quality of education during activities, indoors and outdoors, and assessed the impact this has on children's learning. Staff ask children to help them put bird food in the garden, and show children when a resident crow, who children name 'Colin', knocks on the windows and arrives for food.

This is an amazing preschool and the staff are absolutely lovely, supportive and do an amazing job. My daughter has been attending here since last year and she has flourished so much in her time here. I can't fault the preschool and have only positive thoughts and opinions about this preschool. I highly recommend to all.
