Inspection #10289018 · Source: Ofsted [View full Ofsted report](https://files.ofsted.gov.uk/v1/file/50225742) ## What parents say Verbatim quotes recorded in the Ofsted inspection > It's not just a job to them; their heart is in it! Inclusion & environment ## How they support every child SEND provision The manager and the special educational needs coordinator go the extra mile to make sure that all children feel included in the setting. Additional funding is spent with integrity to directly support children's learning. Children with additional needs demonstrate that they feel happy, safe and settled. However, strategies for teaching communication skills to children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are limited, so some children with SEND are not provided with the right support to express what they want or need or to aid their understanding. Outdoor space Staff provide an ambitious curriculum that makes use of the indoor and outdoor environments. This provides stimulating experiences for children. Older children count accurately and use the language of size as they fill plant pots in the mud kitchen. ## Parent Reviews of Greenside Day Nursery 5.0 (2) ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a-/ALV-UjXrleMfZvKX2HAAsn8pKPw1CFEGr7tL2S5XSlqDVlMCIqZqbnkN=s128-c0x00000000-cc-rp-mo) Lucy D 5 years ago [Read on Google](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m6!14m5!1m4!2m3!1sChZDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSUR5dV9UbUlnEAE!2m1!1s0x487bb6cebd48f861:0x6ed495688e79b872) ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a-/ALV-UjUTM-ii4ypMbCKIuNQ4GzHi4xpIWtUhuzQSmYYKH2S16tqIF14u=s128-c0x00000000-cc-rp-mo-ba4) James Ley 8 years ago [Read on Google](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m6!14m5!1m4!2m3!1sChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSURndk1PRWtRRRAB!2m1!1s0x487bb6cebd48f861:0x6ed495688e79b872) Reviews from Google for Greenside Day Nursery.
