Leaders and staff generally identify children's needs quickly and work closely with parents, outside agencies and other settings to build an accurate understanding of children's individual circumstances and starting points. Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities benefit from targeted support plans and interventions that are reviewed regularly with parents and professionals. Staff use language screening tools and advice from external agencies, such as speech and language therapists, to help shape support for children. Leaders generally use additional funding appropriately to help reduce barriers to children's learning and wellbeing. For example, they have further developed sensory spaces and targeted resources to support children who face barriers to their learning. Outdoor space Staff use both indoor and outdoor environments to provide children with a range of learning experiences, including opportunities to explore the natural world and develop their large-muscle movements outdoors.
