Inclusion & environment
Provision for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) is highly effective with expert support that meets their individual needs. Leaders prioritise building trusting relationships with children and their families, and work closely with parents and external professionals to promptly and accurately identify children's needs. Additional funding is used effectively to provide targeted, expert support, and parents' feedback is highly complimentary.
Children with English as an additional language learn to share their wants and needs, helping them to access learning opportunities and develop meaningful friendships, contributing to their overall development and integration within the setting.
