Inclusion & environment ## How they support every child SEND provision Children achieve well as staff plan a broad curriculum that, overall, reflects children's individual learning needs. This includes those children with special educational needs and/or disabilities. The inspector observed interactions between staff and children, and spoke with staff, including the special educational needs coordinator, at appropriate times. Outdoor space Outdoor play areas are only accessible at certain times during the day, even though staff recognise that some children learn better when playing outdoors. One of the improvements needed is to increase opportunities for children to choose to use outdoor areas to further extend the development of those children who learn better outside. ## Parent Reviews of Sunny Corner Pre-School 5.0 (2) ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a-/ALV-UjWpTreA5_AQRlZclTxM3ex1tdb8nvonvjC-9cjBXg0KML5hENZB=s128-c0x00000000-cc-rp-mo) Katy Peck 4 months ago Our children are incredibly happy with their 'school' days with the team at Sunny Corner.
