Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Where there are any concerns, skilled staff liaise effectively with outside agencies to ensure that children in need of additional support get the help they need. This, along with the nursery's effective use of any additional funding it receives, helps to ensure that all children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities, make at least good progress.
