Inclusion & environment
Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities are identified swiftly. Staff create individual plans with specific targets for each child and deploy a range of strategies, such as visual prompts, to support their needs. Staff work effectively with parents and external agencies to ensure children receive the necessary support.
Children benefit from daily use of the outdoor area and occasional use of the school grounds. Outside, children skilfully throw balls into a basketball hoop and ride bikes along the path, supporting their physical development. Children also have access to fresh air daily during outdoor play.
