Inclusion & environment ## How they support every child SEND provision Leaders have implemented a robust key-person system that provides individual, tailored support. Staff quickly respond to babies' needs. They know the best methods to use to help them settle. The impact of this is that babies rarely get upset or anxious. This state of emotional well-being and involvement enables babies to learn rapidly. Outdoor space The area of the curriculum linked to risk and challenge and gross motor skills does not always stretch and advance babies' skills as well as it could. For example, when babies show a determination to stand and use their leg muscles, staff do not quickly adapt planned activities to build on this skill. The provider should review the curriculum for physical development and consider how the indoor and outdoor environments can support and challenge the development of babies' gross motor movements.
