Inclusion & environment

## How they support every child

SEND provision

Staff swiftly identify those children who may need additional support. They work closely with parents and a range of outside agencies to ensure that all children make the best possible progress. Individual support plans provide clear targets, which identify the small steps of learning for each child.

Outdoor space

The outdoor learning environment is a buzz of excitement. Toddlers squeal with delight at the prospect of going into the garden. Children develop core strength and balance by climbing on tree branches and clambering into the treehouse, and use their imagination sitting in the boat and pretending to go on journeys.
