Support for people with disabilities

Experience of including people with special educational needs and disabilities

We have a qualified and experienced SendCO who attends regular training to keep updated , sharing information with the team to provide consistent high quality care to all children who attend the setting.

Children who require additional support throughout the session are given enhanced support and an Individual Education Plan. We work closely with parents and other professionals to identify specific needs of the child and use these to support their plan and development.

Resources reflect the interests and the needs of the children who attend, and where additional equipment could further the children's development the setting works towards obtaining what is needed. We adapt our learning environment to meet the needs identified.
