What parents say

Verbatim quotes recorded in the Ofsted inspection

They have gone above and beyond what I would ever have expected.

Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Staff have built an obstacle course at just the right level to provide some challenge while also enabling children, including children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), to experience the thrill of completing it successfully. All children, including those from disadvantaged backgrounds and children with SEND, make rapid progress. Training is targeted to meet individual staff or children's learning needs, for example, to support children's mental health and children with autism spectrum disorder.

Outdoor space

No specific mention of outdoor area or physical play beyond the obstacle course.
