Inclusion & environment

## How they support every child

SEND provision

Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are well supported. Staff support children's development through inclusive teaching strategies. For instance, children choose what they would like to sing by selecting a 'song spoon'. This visual aid encourages participation from children who find verbal communication challenging. As a result, all children can express preferences and make good progress.

Outdoor space

Children paint on cling film stretched between trees, experimenting with different media to enhance their creativity and cognitive skills. Children also refine balance while riding bicycles, improving their coordination and core strength, which supports them in growing stronger and more confident.
