Inclusion & environment ## How they support every child SEND provision The provider and staff monitor children's progress meticulously, putting in place specific support to help children catch up while waiting for outside support. The provider has used additional funding highly effectively to support any gaps in children's development. The provider and staff place a huge focus on supporting children's speech and language development and provide small group activities to build on language skills for those with gaps. Outdoor space The provider has prioritised gaining funding for a climbing frame, recognising that many children do not have access to the outdoors, to develop their core strength and physical skills. Children regularly engage in physical exercise, indoors and outdoors, and outside, staff provide lots of resources to help children develop their core strength and large physical skills.
