Inclusion & environment
The support in place for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities is excellent. The knowledgeable special educational needs coordinator (SENCo) provides children with targeted support. She plans and reviews children's personal goals to ensure that they are receiving the right help.
Babies dressed in all-weather suits crawl around the garden, confidently exploring their surroundings. They repeat the word 'pop' as they watch with fascination as bubbles float up into the sky.
