Experience of including people with special educational needs and disabilities

At Otley Under Fives Centre, we are a small rural Pre-school where our daily number of attendance mean excellent Child:Staff ratios. We aim to be fully inclusive to all people within our care and work closely with parents/carers to support the family as a whole. We have experience of working with external agencies to support Speech and Language, Behavioural, and Autistic Spectrum conditions. Staff members regularly attend training to expand their professional qualification and knowledge, and will seek further training to be as inclusive as possible for all SEN children. Cathy is the settings SENCO who works closely with the whole team to ensure continuity for every child.
