Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are exceptionally well supported. The special educational needs coordinator (SENCo) works proactively with parents and other professionals, to ensure children make the best possible progress. The manager and staff review and adapt the provision to create an inclusive environment that accommodates all children, including those with complex physical needs.

Outdoor space

Staff promote healthy living and encourage exercise indoors and out, to develop children's physical skills and well-being. Children climb steps, negotiate a bridge and slide indoors, while outside they run around, pedal tractors and negotiate obstacles in the fresh air. Physical education sessions run by visiting sports specialists and the woodland play area provide further opportunities for children to develop their physical skills.

Nothing short of outstanding, the care and compassion shown here should be a standard all Early Years providers should adhere to . I would give 6 stars if I could! Thank you for being so great with my Son.
