Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Leaders describe the challenges they have faced during the COVID-19 pandemic. They explain that they have worked hard to access specific help for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities. Leaders and staff share information with other professionals and schools where children attend. This helps to support a continued approach to children's learning.

Outdoor space

Children ride around the garden on bikes and large wheeled toys, confidently telling visitors they love to race around "really fast! Like Sonic the hedgehog!" Staff provide large planks of wood, wooden reels and crates for children to stack and build, helping them learn to climb and balance, which develops their physical skills.
