Inspection #10228579 · Source: Ofsted [View full Ofsted report](https://files.ofsted.gov.uk/v1/file/50184246) Inclusion & environment ## How they support every child SEND provision The special educational needs coordinator (SENCo) is knowledgeable and works in partnership with parents and relevant professionals to put specific plans in place. The manager and staff work well with parents and other professionals to provide support for children who have special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). However, practical strategies that support children with speech and language difficulties are not successfully implemented to ensure children access and benefit from all aspects of the curriculum. Outdoor space Children are active and explore their physical abilities through a range of extra-curricular activities, such as swimming and dancing. They have free flow to the garden and resources are accessible and within reach, allowing them choice. ## Parent Reviews of Enchanted Nursery 5.0 (2) ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a-/ALV-UjUoXP86oiaHVLJI6pv62LrL54ck-TeuiFal8FPkb9TTIhUPRrp9=s128-c0x00000000-cc-rp-mo) charisa 3 years ago Hello!
