SEND Provision & Inclusion

How do we support children with additional needs / SEND?

Every nursery has a dedicated SENDCo who works alongside children, families, Key Persons and external professionals to provide support where needed. Guided by the principle of inclusion, we welcome all children and work hard to identify and remove barriers to learning so that every child can participate fully in nursery life.

Our approach includes:

• Early identification of additional needs
• Close partnership with parents
• Individual support plans
• A graduated approach to intervention
• Collaboration with specialist professionals
• Regular review of children’s progress and wellbeing

Supporting children with additional needs is one of the things we are particularly proud of. Across our nurseries, Ofsted has recognised the quality of support provided for children with SEND, highlighting strong relationships, effective partnership working and personalised approaches that help children make excellent progress from their starting points.
