About this day nursery

Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

For all children, including those with special educational needs/and or disabilities and those in receipt of additional funding, progress is exceptional. For some children who start slightly behind their peers, they are helped to catch up very quickly. When some children start slightly behind in their speaking skills, staff swiftly enable them to quickly catch up with their peers.

Outdoor space

Staff are deployed effectively, both indoors and outside. They keep children under their close supervision, reminding them about how to keep themselves safe.
