Inclusion & environment
All children make good progress, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities. Staff observe their development carefully and plan appropriate next steps to help children succeed, including those in receipt of additional funding. Staff work closely with other settings and agencies to support those with additional needs.
Children have many opportunities to practise sharing outdoors. For instance, staff encourage children to use timers to ensure they all have a turn on the sit-and-ride cars outdoors.
