Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Staff monitor children's progress and quickly highlight children who need additional support or children with emerging special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). They work with parents and carers to devise individual support plans, make referrals with parental consent, and incorporate recommendations from health professionals into children's daily activities to ensure consistent support.

Outdoor space

Children have daily opportunities for outside play at a space situated a short distance away from the nursery. They know to stop at key points for staff to count them and wait for their younger peers to ensure they all move together to reach the area to play.

This nursery is fantastic! Our little one is happy to go every day. They promote children's development in every aspect by doing different activities. Laura, the manager, is very professional and always willing to help; she and the rest of the team are lovely and take good care of the children. I'm pleased with this nursery, hardly recommended.

After canceling my child's nursery place, it was a challenge getting back my deposit. Several emails (to the nursery, nursery manager and head office - Inspired Learning Group) went unanswered. Eventually, I had to do a retail dispute.

Our daughter has thrived since she started at the nursery. The staff are very kind and professional. They really care about the children. Our daughter needs to receive regular physio and the physio has shown her key person exercises to do with her which she does every day. The food is delicious too.
