Inclusion & environment ## How they support every child SEND provision Staff support all children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), extremely well. For example, when children struggle with their feelings, staff use calm voices in an age-appropriate manner to settle them down. Support for children with SEND is a strength. The nursery works in partnership with other agencies, such as speech and language therapists and health visitors. Staff attend training to further their knowledge of ways to support children with SEND. Children with SEND thrive and make progress at this nursery. Outdoor space Older children build strength and stamina in the garden while rolling down tubes. However, staff do not always give the same attention to the planning of outdoors as inside. This means that children's large muscle skills are not always effectively planned for. ## Parent Reviews of Darlington College Childcare Centre 4.3 (6) ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a-/ALV-UjVbeH0nafUKXXVtrbFandfwxdvV-Mpfo4FK69X0khHs7KNKcZbB=s128-c0x00000000-cc-rp-mo-ba3) Susan Spencer 8 months ago My little boy has just started here last week and honestly I cannot praise them enough.
