How they support every child

SEND provision

All children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), make good progress and are prepared for their next stage in learning. The support for children with SEND is secure. Leaders and staff act promptly when they have concerns about children's development. Staff work closely with other professionals to identify and implement interventions to help support children, when required. Additional funding is used effectively to enhance children's learning experiences.

Outdoor space

Older children spend extended periods of time highly engaged as they search the garden for snails. They take turns and work together as they share different tools, such as trowels and a magnifying glass.
