Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Staff and children use signs alongside speaking. This ensures that younger children and those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) develop their communication skills excellently. Children with SEND make excellent progress. They receive the extra support they require in order to make continual progress. Key persons are aware of external targets and integrate these into daily practice. Leaders use additional funding effectively to support individual children's needs.

Outdoor space

Children develop their physical skills exceptionally well. Children laugh as they join in with yoga outside, practising their physical skills while retelling a familiar story.

Highly recommend Busy bees Rugby , it’s been great for all 3 of my kids especially my son with SEN ,he has had so much support and they have assisted in the EHCP process which is now all in place for when he starts school this year. I wouldn’t have known where to start without their help! The staff are all lovely , friendly and experienced. They work hard and give the children the best start in education and play.

I sent my daughter to nursery everyday since she was only 6 months old, her key persons and all the staff have looked after her very well. Everyday I can see her learning and growing into a wonderful person. She loves going to the nursery so much that sometimes on holidays she misses her key person and staff at Busy Bees. The staff are highly proficient and the facilities amenable for children. They have a well rounded curriculum to keep children engaged in learning and practicing what they learn I recommend Busy Bees to any parent who wants the comfort of knowing that your child is as well looked after here as they might be at home (sometimes even better than home!)

Our son loves going to Busy Bees Rugby. The staff are so welcoming to both children and parents and it is clear that they genuinely care about our son. He always has a fun day and is excited to go in every morning. We get great updates about his activities and development. We have been particularly impressed by the communication we have received during the covid pandemic about closure and reopening and with all of the new measures in place we feel very safe leaving our son at nursery.

The girls are fantastic with my little girl who started there a year ago. They have been amazing considering my daughter is quite anxious and have brought on her confidence so so much since she started. I trust them wholeheartedly and can’t thank them enough for the care and kindness when looking after my daughter.

We are exceptionally happy with Busy Bees Rugby. All the staff are excellent, and genuinely care for our son, looking after him fantastically. He loves his days at nursery and has formed great friendships there, at the same time as being encouraged in his development and learning. The regular updates and observations provided via the ParentZone App are very helpful, especially to see what varied and healthy meals he eats. Highly recommend.
