Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Additional funding is used well to support staff to meet children's individual needs. For example, staff attend advanced training, so they can skilfully support children who have speech and language delay. Staff work successfully with professionals, who support those children with special educational needs and/or disabilities.

Outdoor space

Children are physically active each day. Staff talk with them about the benefits of exercise and keeping fit. Many older children recognise letters and their sounds, as they find word cards hidden around the nursery garden.

My son attended this pre school before moving off to go to school. He was well cared for, happy and all of the staff ensured he had ample learning opportunities in preparation for big school. I can't praise Daisy chain enough. The staff are dedicated and professional and the learning environment it fantastic. I would recommend to anyone.
