Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

The management team provides effective support to staff and helps them to meet the needs of children. For example, the lead staff member for supporting children with special educational needs and/or disabilities regularly visits the setting and supports staff with any targets and individual plans.

Outdoor space

The manager is currently focusing on enhancing the on-site curriculum outdoors, so it is equally as exciting and challenging as indoors for those children who prefer to learn outside. Staff are currently unable to continue the woodland outdoor learning programme, due to restrictions, and the on-site curriculum outside is less varied than indoors.
