Inclusion & environment ## How they support every child SEND provision Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities are very well supported to make continuous progress. Staff know them well and provide targeted interventions to support their ongoing development. They benefit from small-group sessions, where they learn how to follow routines and instructions. Outdoor space Children demonstrate their physical skills by riding wheeled toys, climbing in and out of tyres and running with their friends. They use mats outdoors to practise their forward rolls. Managers ensure that they tailor the curriculum to reduce any gaps in learning related to outdoor play, as they have recognised that children do not have many opportunities for it in their homes. ## Google Reviews of Little Owls Nursery Burley Park 2.7 (7 Google reviews) Kirsty O'Brien 4 years ago I do not like the fact this nursery would rather speak to the local authority about your child rather than the parent first there was no danger to my child like they made out.
