Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

The provision for supporting children with special educational needs and/or disabilities is outstanding. Staff promptly identify children's needs and support them exceptionally well. For example, staff set up small intervention groups in the outdoor learning pod, to support children's speech and language development. The special educational needs coordinator works together with other professionals, such as speech therapists, to devise strategies and targets. As a result, children make extremely good progress in their learning and development.

Outdoor space

Children have access to the excellent outdoor learning environment at all times of the year. They explore the sensory gardens, balance beams and age-appropriate equipment to challenge their physical development. Staff provide exceptional opportunities for children to connect to the natural world, through the forest school area.
