Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

The provision for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) is exceptional. The experienced pastoral manager coordinates a joined-up approach to promoting children's progress and welfare. Her sensitive support helps parents to play an active role in agreeing multi-agency action plans. Children with SEND make rapid progress from their starting points.

Outdoor space

The curriculum was improved after the manager completed training to enhance her knowledge about children's physical development. Children now draw and paint at floor level more often, which promotes their shoulder strength and stability effectively.
