Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

The setting works effectively with other agencies. For example, information from specialist support workers quickly feeds into personalised plans to support children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). As a result, all children receive full access to high-quality care and education.

Outdoor space

When children need more water for outdoor play, staff say 'Where could you get that?' They encourage children to ask their friends for help to carry the bucket.
