Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

All children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities, make good progress in their learning. Leaders make good use of additional funding to improve children's communication and language development. For instance, children who may be at risk of falling behind are taught sign language by an outside professional.

Outdoor space

Younger children are excited to splash in the rain while playing outdoors, giggling in delight as they remove their hoods to feel the rain land on their hair. Children go on 'bear hunts' in the forest and exercise their large muscles in the park.
