Inclusion & environment

## How they support every child

SEND provision

Staff recognise that children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) benefit from some individual time with staff when they arrive to help them settle into the routines of the day. Children, including those with SEND, make good progress. Staff work closely with parents and professionals from other agencies to identify children with SEND early.

Outdoor space

Children confidently count and recognise numbers displayed and written in chalk in the outdoor area. Outdoors, children run and show increasing balance as they step along stepping stones and climb on crates.

My children loved attending this nursery, the staff are pleasant and caring. My children still talks about the nursery and every time we passed it they ask if they can go and visit their "aunties". Could not recommend it more!
