Inclusion & environment

The special educational needs coordinator (SENCo) is highly knowledgeable and works exceptionally well with other professionals, and parents, to provide the very best support for children with SEND.

Consequently, children with SEND make superb progress from their individual starting points.

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to everyone at the college for the exceptional care, warmth and support our daughter has received since joining the school this year. As this was her very first school experience, without any prior contact with other colleges, we were naturally a little anxious about how she would adapt. However, from the very beginning, the welcome she received was simply perfect. She was met with kindness, patience and genuine care, with her individuality fully respected and valued. The support she has received with the English language has been especially meaningful. Thanks to the encouragement and guidance from the staff, she has grown in confidence each day. Today, she truly loves being at school and speaks about it with excitement and joy — which means the world to us as a family. We would like to give a very special mention to her teachers, who have all played such an important role in this beautiful journey. In particular, we would like to thank Sheena, whom our daughter mentions with great affection and admiration. Her dedication, warmth and attentiveness have made a lasting impression and have clearly helped our daughter feel safe, happy and inspired. Thank you once again for creating such a nurturing and welcoming environment. We feel incredibly grateful and reassured knowing our daughter is part of such a wonderful school community.
Read on GoogleI was invited to College Green Nursery last Thursday as a visiting author/illustrator to share my children's books and storytelling with the children and was very impressed by the warm reception of very friendly staff led by the Headteacher and particularly by Nawal Filali Naji the facilitator of my visit. I was most impressed by just how settled and happy the new intake of 4 year olds were, and their enthusiasm for participation and learning. It is likely down to what I think I detect as the Nursery's environment of structured pastoral care and love.
Read on GoogleCollege Green is simply the best. Our children have had the most amazing time there with constant love, support, development and new friendships in teachers and children. The staff are always friendly and helpful, I feel they know our children so well now and we are so sad to be saying good bye. Incredible dedication to the children and their imaginations and all the teachings stem from the children. Unbelievable leaving graduation that blew us away and huge amount of effort and love from all the teachers. Thank you for being so wonderful and nurturing and looking after our children:)
Read on GoogleCollege Green is an exceptional nursery in every aspect. So much love and care goes into everything they do. The children genuinely feel loved and develop into confident, happy kids, ready for the school years ahead. The extra activities like forest school and farm visits have been much enjoyed by my children as well as the on-site chickens, mud kitchens and tree house. My 7 year old still asks if he can go back. Hands down the best nursery you could wish for. Thank you for amazing memories College Green. Forever grateful.
Read on GoogleCollege Green is a fantastic nursery - and anyone who has experienced it will agree. Both my children have attended and have absolutely loved every minute. The staff are caring, kind, so thoughtful and only have the best interests of the children at heart. It can be tricky to get a place there, but that’s because it’s so brilliant everyone wants to send their kids there!
