Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

The special educational needs coordinator works closely with staff, parents and other professionals. Staff work with the dedicated speech and language therapist to put targets in place and implement these to help all children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities, to progress. The manager uses additional funding that some children receive to help meet their individual needs.

Outdoor space

Staff promote a love for reading in the new cosy corners inside, as well as the large reading area outside. Children take a bus to visit the local park and experience paying the bus fare. At the park, children enjoy looking for wildlife, creating pictures with flowers and having a picnic lunch with their friends.
