Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities are supported very well. Staff work closely with parents and external professionals to ensure that timely support is provided. Funding is used well to ensure that children who need a little more help receive the support they are entitled to, which helps them to make the progress they are capable of.

Outdoor space

Children know how to keep themselves safe when climbing down the staircase to play outside. As they line up beforehand, they declare with conviction, 'hold on to the bannister'.

EAL / language support

Children who speak English as an additional language are very well supported. Staff read dual-language story books, say words in both languages and ensure that children have opportunities to see and use their home language as they play. This means that children who start with a very limited understanding of English become confident communicators and are able to verbalise their wants and needs in both languages.

Our daughter attended 2020-2023. The most caring and nurturing place we could have picked. Highly recommend.

I couldn't recommend them enough. My little boy loves it here. A cute little place amd very welcoming, not over crowded. I found it hard to let my little boy go to nursery before he turned 2 but after 18 months of isolation due to lockdown I felt he needed it for his social skills. They have been nothing but supportive since his transition and kept me up to date on all his activities throughout the day. He has come on leaps and bounds in his short time being there. The staff are individually loyal to the children as I've seen for myself. My boy can't wait to go to nursery now and happily greets his keywork. Fantastic place. Brilliant staff.
