Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

The managers actively engage with other agencies to ensure that children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) receive top priority in accessing early intervention and highly effective support. The special educational needs coordinator collaborates with local authorities to secure additional funding for implementing evidence-based interventions that focus on children's outcomes.

Outdoor space

Children eagerly discover new flavours and textures during their play in the garden. For example, during an outdoor baking activity, children are curious to learn about various ingredients that they need to use to bake naturally scented cakes. Children enjoy ample opportunities for physical activity outdoors, including sliding, splashing in a paddling pool, baking in the mud kitchen, and building in a construction area.
