Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities receive exceptional support. Concerns about children's development are addressed swiftly, and external professionals work alongside the special educational needs coordinator to support the children's progress. The manager ensures that additional funding is spent appropriately, for example to provide one-to-one support for children if they need it.

Outdoor space

Children use their large-muscle skills as they sit on balance bicycles and propel themselves forwards with their legs. They start to develop their coordination and core muscle strength as they climb on the apparatus. They collect leaves and conkers as they learn about the seasons, and they feed the ducks and birds as they discover the natural world.

It is a frustration and I am super angry about the service I have received from the nursery staff. Just to tell me if there is a place in the nursery has taken them 2 weeks to tell me. I have been calling every day and each worker told me different information and they took my details again and they are supposed to have received the form that I had sent with all the details. This is irresponsible. It is outrageous that they have to take two weeks just to know if there is a place or not. I AM VERY ANNOYED BY THE BAD SERVICE AND THE IRRESPONSIBILITY OF THE WORKERS, ESPECIALLY LAMIA WHO PROMISED ME FROM THE BEGINNING THAT SHE WOULD ANSWER ME SOON BUT SINCE LAST WEDNESDAY I HAVE NOT HEARD FROM HER. I am really outraged by the time you have wasted to then tell me that there is no room. This is shameful of you as a nursery that teaches Islamic values. Thank you for making me lose the two weeks and now I have to start looking for another kindergarten. This is unforgivable.
