Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Parents describe the support their children receive from staff at the nursery as 'life changing'. They particularly value the timely, outstanding support for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities. Staff quickly identify gaps in learning and development, make swift referrals to other agencies, and implement effective strategies to help children develop skills.

Outdoor space

Staff recognise that children have experienced fewer opportunities outside of the home due to the COVID-19 pandemic. They ensure children spend lots of time outdoors, which helps children to rapidly gain physical skills and close the gaps in learning. The curriculum for physical development is extremely strong, with children climbing, running, and riding around the extensive garden, developing coordination, strength, and dexterity.

My son went to Rainbows, not only were they an excellent childcare in every aspect they literally helped him out in other ways too, speech & language, potty training, referrals for his development etc etc. We can not thank them enough, my son now attends Millbrook primary & the moving on from Rainbows has been perfect. Thank you.
