Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Staff take prompt action when they identify any gaps in children's learning. They adapt their own practice and make referrals to other professionals to ensure all children receive the support they need. This approach helps to ensure that any children with special educational needs and/or disabilities are fully included.

Outdoor space

Outdoor learning helps children develop an understanding of the world and improve their physical development. Children are taught to understand risks and to think about how they can stay safe.

EAL / language support

There are too few opportunities provided for children who speak English as an additional language to develop and use their home language in either their play or their learning.
