Inspection #10218268 · Source: Ofsted [View full Ofsted report](https://files.ofsted.gov.uk/v1/file/50187166) Inclusion & environment ## How they support every child SEND provision Staff have worked hard to help disadvantaged children to catch up with their peers. They have used funding to meet their individual learning needs. For example, funding has been used to purchase a 'turn-taking teddy'. This has helped children who need a little bit of help to wait patiently for their turn. Outdoor space Staff offer good levels of supervision without hindering children's learning and progress. For example, they give toddlers the freedom to run and develop their muscles as they play outdoors. This also helps toddlers to build their confidence and resilience as they take risks in a safe environment. ## Parent Reviews of The Rises 5.0 (1) ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a/ACg8ocKryGR6dMoKCYc9rNQPsxI1tu7JPcaTowLdnDG5h9cDa8yNuHPz=s128-c0x00000000-cc-rp-mo-ba3) Alan Gleghorn 7 years ago [Read on Google](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m6!14m5!1m4!2m3!1sChZDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSUNZdExqZ2FnEAE!2m1!1s0x487bb842c3ac4f59:0x2670c32ad5d63102) Reviews from Google for The Rises.
