Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

The special educational needs coordinator helps staff to make plans to adapt the curriculum to meet the children's learning needs while further assessments are undertaken. They regularly share their assessments of children and seek parents' views about their children's development and achievements at home.

Outdoor space

Children enjoy opportunities to count and solve simple problems. For example, they enthusiastically gather outside in the creative outdoor space and play 'what's the time Mr Wolf?'. They count the cups of water needed to water the plants in the containers and consider how many large wooden blocks they can jump from.

We have been sending our daughter here for a year and a half. An absolutely wonderful pre-school with great staff who really care about the children. The garden is a huge and brilliantly equipped space where the children can play and learn about nature. I thoroughly recommend it.

Our children have attended for several years, it's a wonderful nursery with a real focus on self confidence, caring nature and collective spirit. It has the best garden, and the staff give detailed feedback on my child's day and development.
