Inspection #10264574 · Source: Ofsted [View full Ofsted report](https://files.ofsted.gov.uk/v1/file/50209953) Inclusion & environment ## How they support every child SEND provision The manager and staff work very hard to ensure the pre-school is fully inclusive. Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) receive exemplary care and education. The manager and staff are extremely knowledgeable and skilled in the identification of SEND, and promptly implement strategies to support children. They work closely with external professionals, which results in the most vulnerable children making rapid progress. Outdoor space Children investigate outside, negotiating the climbing frame, sliding down the fire pole and swinging on the rope swing. They make cakes and 'silly soup' in the mud kitchen, using mud, leaves and flower petals.
