Inclusion & environment ## How they support every child SEND provision Staff support children with special educational needs and/or disabilities particularly well, using signs, visual cues and calming strategies. For example, during a small group activity, one member of staff teaches children signs for each other's names. The special educational needs coordinator spoke to the inspector about how they support children with SEND. Outdoor space Children engage deeply in their play both inside and outside. For example, children playing with sand in the garden count with staff and make patterns in the sand, which they discuss. Staff risk-assess the setting daily, both inside and outside, ensuring that it is safe for children. Staff remind children how to keep themselves safe, for instance, wearing a helmet when riding a bike in the garden.
