Areas to develop
Inclusion & environment
Staff understand how to support children with special educational needs and/or disabilities. Staff work closely with a range of external professionals to seek the support that children need. They create targeted and suitable activities for children who require additional support. This ensures they are fully inclusive and able to adapt activities and the environment to meet the needs of all children.
Children thoroughly enjoy their time outdoors and the freedom to explore. They have many opportunities to discover nature and develop their understanding of the world in the garden or walks around the national park areas available to them.
