Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Support for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) is carefully considered. The special educational needs coordinator assists staff in recognising when children may need additional interventions and helps them to implement effective strategies. Staff work closely with parents, schools and professionals to ensure that children receive continuous support and guidance. Children with SEND make good progress from their starting points.

Outdoor space

Children enjoy accessing the safely enclosed outdoor space. They take calculated risks to climb and balance, learning to keep themselves safe. Staff play games such as hide and seek. However, the outdoor curriculum does not always provide children with challenge. Sometimes, children wander with little engagement and focus.
