Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Staff work closely with parents and other professionals to create individually tailored plans for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). They ensure that children with SEND have the resources and support they need to access learning alongside their peers. Important information is shared effectively to maintain a continuity of approach both at home and in the setting. As a result, children with SEND make excellent progress from their staring points.

Outdoor space

Staff provide extensive opportunities to support children's physical development. For instance, others enjoy moving in different ways as they stomp like dinosaurs in the garden. The management team has recently sourced training for all staff to improve the already excellent teaching and learning in the outdoor area.

My boys first few days at nursery I was worried, only 10 months old and younger than his other kids. But he's gotten on so well, plays with everyone and everything, loves the food, the staff love him too. I couldn't be more happier sending my boy here! I know he's well looked after with constant updates on the app special mention so pal and the apprentice 🩵

After looking around for nurseries for my two children, this nursery has been the best. My husband and myself are teachers and we can see how well a nursery is run and this nursery is mind blowing! I can see a massive improvement in my daughter’s speech and my son’s development. I cannot thank them enough for what they do and always keeping me up to date with what they’re doing and learning every week. They are always professional and really pleasant to speak with.
