Inclusion & environment
The special educational needs coordinator (SENCo) works extremely effectively with children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) and those who require additional support. She works closely with parents and other professionals to meet children's individual needs, going above and beyond to keep in touch so children continue to get the help they need.
Older children delight in using paintbrushes in the snow to make shapes as they play outside in the snowy weather. The inspector observed the quality of education being provided, indoors and outdoors, and assessed the impact on children's learning.
