Inclusion & environment

## How they support every child

SEND provision

The development of an interactive sensory room has significantly enhanced children's learning experiences, particularly those with special educational needs and/or disabilities. All children are supported to reach their full potential.

Outdoor space

The inspector observed the quality of education being provided, indoors and outdoors, and assessed the impact on children's learning. When playing outside, children are dismayed when a beanbag becomes stuck on the roof, which swiftly leads to them considering how they might resolve the situation.
