Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Support for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities is strong. Leaders work closely with parents and outside agencies to ensure children receive the help they need.

Outdoor space

Children enjoy a wide variety of activities, indoors and outdoors, which helps to promote their physical development. Staff support children to engage freely in adventurous play, such as climbing trees, where they learn to assess their own abilities, take risks, and develop problem-solving skills. The exceptionally well-resourced outdoor play area effectively extends the children's learning environment, allowing them to create art, access books, develop fine motor control, make music, and observe insects.

EAL / language support

All children benefit from a language-rich environment. Children speak with enthusiasm about how they enjoy listening to stories. Babies eagerly join in music and dance sessions, smiling broadly as they shake musical instruments and learn new actions. Two-year-old children sing enthusiastically and take turns choosing the next song. Older children use their developing language to answer questions, express their opinions and share their news with their friends. Children develop the skills and attitudes for their next stage of learning, including their move on to school.

Absoloutley amazing! My son has been going here for the last 6 months. I can’t fault them, the staff have been amazing since day one, very friendly and accommodating and most importantly my little one loves going! I feel so reassured that he’s very well cared for.
