Inclusion & environment ## How they support every child SEND provision Barriers to children's learning are quickly identified through the use of assessment. Staff make highly effective plans to support children's progress and work with other agencies to establish high levels of support for children. The use of sign language supports children who are non-verbal to be part of the nursery community. The special educational needs coordinator spoke to the inspector about how they support children with special educational needs and/or disabilities. Outdoor space Children develop large motor skills by safely building dens at forest school. They enjoy challenge and show resilience as they run, climb and balance outdoors. In forest school, children learn skills to climb a tree, attend a campfire or meet a dog safely. ## Google Reviews of Hale Day Nursery and Nursery School 5.0 (2 Google reviews) ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a-/ALV-UjWjnprbm9a0_JLYV4uTiVsNOJGJtIlKStVrW1BUnZezSTELENU=s128-c0x00000000-cc-rp-mo-ba2) Faye Roddy 7 years ago Our 2yo has been there for over a year and we love it, more importantly she loves it !
