St Mary's Playgroup, nestled in the heart of Tetbury, is a community-focused early years setting dedicated to the holistic development of toddlers and preschoolers. Emphasising a nurturing and caring environment, the playgroup prides itself on maintaining high standards and delivering quality care.

Additionally, the 'Seedlings Baby & Toddler Group' provides a gentle introduction for prospective children and their parents to the playgroup's staff and atmosphere, ensuring a smooth transition into sessions.

Inclusion & environment

## How they support every child

SEND provision

Leaders have identified the lasting impact of COVID-19 on children's learning and development, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) and have adapted to close gaps in learning. The special educational needs and disabilities coordinator (SENDCo) works alongside all staff, parents and external agencies to ensure that children's individual needs are being met. Children with SEND and those in receipt of additional funding make good progress.

Outdoor space

Children practise mark making and develop their fine motor skills, for example, drawing with chalk on the playground. Staff successfully support children's physical development.
