Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) especially relish their time in this caring environment. Staff are skilled at pinpointing where children need a little help. They adapt the curriculum and use strategies to help children feel fully included. Staff, supported by the special educational needs coordinator (SENCo), ensure that children with SEND get the support they need. They have regular meetings with parents and make timely referrals to outside agencies.

Outdoor space

As toddlers transition from indoors to outdoors, the routine is disorganised. The provider should plan and provide increased support for toddlers, to help prevent disruptions to their learning when they move between indoor and outside play.

Nothing is too much trouble. The Childrens welfare and safety is paramount. I have also witness the smiles, the laughter, the love and the hugs. A Beautiful little nursery with a calm and warm atmosphere where children flourish and always smiling

My son attends The Bungalow for before and after-school wrap-around care, and occasionally for holiday club. The staff are truly amazing at what they do. They have built wonderful bonds with both myself and most importantly Caleb. They always go the extra mile when planning activities and creating a warm, exciting space for the children. Deciding to send Caleb to The Bungalow instead of a general school-based club has been the best decision I’ve made. Knowing that he is truly loved, valued, and cared for gives me complete peace of mind. I’m incredibly grateful for the care, enthusiasm, and dedication the team at The Bungalow consistently show. I couldn’t ask for a better place for my child.

Fantastic nursery and staff are brilliant. Our girl has come on leaps and bounds and her confidence has really grown. The activities and trips out the team do with the children are fantastic. Can’t wait for my youngest to start with them in the new year :)
