Inclusion & environment ## How they support every child SEND provision Staff consistently support speech by naming objects and using single words with younger children. Staff introduce new vocabulary, model key words and provide play-based support to develop children's speech. They use rich, descriptive language to enhance older children's expressive vocabulary. Outdoor space Children enjoy regular access to the outdoor area, benefiting from fresh air and physical activity. However, the space lacks the purposeful and engaging learning seen indoors and requires redevelopment to spark curiosity and deepen learning.
