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. ## Parent Reviews of The Cedars Nursery Sunderland 5.0 (3) ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a-/ALV-UjXmh3eg_f_80_Bm0SGtt9LgrMt3VvjLVochuXdx7QxMqUCKKbXu=s128-c0x00000000-cc-rp-mo-ba5) Gary Papa Smith 8 years ago Nice nursery very friendly staff and lots for the kids to do [Read on Google](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m6!14m5!1m4!2m3!1sChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSUNBbnBManh3RRAB!2m1!1s0x487e6696c97cfb69:0x25eb350324c2b299) ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a-/ALV-UjWsfa7SpWkF_DT9JdBTGghKlJ7T2ul24b6avuKsBI9qsf0JrOzY=s128-c0x00000000-cc-rp-mo) James Allen a month ago [Read on Google](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m6!14m5!1m4!2m3!1sCi9DQUlRQUNvZENodHljRjlvT2padGJXOVBibE5WU0dwU2VUWmZZMGt5VlVVeWNIYxAB!2m1!1s0x487e6696c97cfb69:0x25eb350324c2b299) ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a-/ALV-UjU8KSlyzgwkojc8IdzOVXEzJhhpHj2txSyEunQYvaqCK3corraH=s128-c0x00000000-cc-rp-mo) Ha kimi 2 years ago [Read on Google](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m6!14m5!1m4!2m3!1sChZDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSUNELTVIRkd3EAE!2m1!1s0x487e6696c97cfb69:0x25eb350324c2b299) Reviews from Google for The Cedars Nursery Sunderland.
