Children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), make good progress in their learning from their individual starting points. Staff are attentive to the individual needs of children with SEND. They have strong support from the skilled special educational needs coordinator. Very close working with other professionals means timely referrals are made for early and ongoing support.

Outdoor space

Daily access to a well-resourced, fun outdoor play area means children's learning continues to be promoted and they benefit from fresh air and exercise.
