Inclusion & environment

## How they support every child

SEND provision

Leaders are proactive at assessing support for children who need it. They work well with other professionals and use additional funding effectively to support individual children's needs. As a result, all children, including those with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), make good progress from their starting points.

Outdoor space

Children have plenty of opportunities to explore the outdoors. They have lots of fun as they play in the well-resourced garden. Children develop an awareness of how to keep themselves safe, confidently negotiating large apparatus and managing risks effectively.
