Inclusion & environment

## How they support every child

SEND provision

Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities receive tailored support to meet their individual needs. Staff work closely and collaboratively with parents and other professionals, such as speech and language therapists, to help children make good progress in their learning.

Outdoor space

Children relish their time in the nursery garden. Older children demonstrate their good physical skills as they ride bikes up and down the garden, manoeuvring around objects in their path. Other children enjoy learning about nature as they care for a slug they find on the ground.

This is an outstanding nursery. My youngest son has attended Peacock Montessori since we moved to the area and has come on in leaps and bounds. He starts school this term and is very prepared for the transition. I cannot rate or recommend it highly enough
