Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Staff implement strategies to identify and support children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) well. They use observations to complete appropriate referrals and complete support plans to evidence further support needed and monitor children's progress. Children receive targeted intervention, and staff remove all barriers to children accessing the nursery, which helps all children to make significant progress.

Outdoor space

Children have many opportunities for exciting physical play. Staff teach children how to move their bodies as they play with large hoops. However, a large number of resources in the outside area means children move frequently between activities and staff do not consistently engage in meaningful play.

My son joined Little Stars when he was 10 months old, and now at 26 months he has come a long way since then. I really appreciate the parental support I receive, including the daily reports, diaries and photos/videos. The staff have been outstanding in helping in all areas of development. My son has fun with his friends and clearly loves attending Little Stars. He understands clearly who his key worker is and has developed an attachment to her. I really appreciate all of the effort from the staff that has been put into developing and nurturing my son. I highly recommend this nursery.
