How they support every child
SEND provision
The support for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities is good. Staff make timely referrals to ensure that children receive the specialist support they need. Staff carefully consider how to spend any additional funding to support the health and well-being of all children, including those who may be disadvantaged.
