Inclusion & environment
How they support every child
SEND provision
When children returned to pre-school after the national lockdown, staff assessed their learning to identify any developmental delays. Staff complete regular observations and assessments to determine children's current learning levels and what they need to learn next. The manager closely monitors these assessments to ensure all children make good progress.
Outdoor space
Children enjoy making marks with felt-tip pens on the whiteboard in the garden. Children plant seeds both indoors and outdoors and observe their growth, such as carrots, spring onions, and radishes, through clear planter sides to understand changes.
