Special Education Needs
Quality Child Care
From language and literacy development to social skills and creative expression, the children at Secret Garden Nursery are constantly being exposed to new activities and environments in which to thrive. We build on the strengths and interests of each child to help build a solid foundation where they can develop their futures. Get in touch to learn more about us.
SENCO Local Offer
Key Person
When you first join the nursery we ensure that a key person is allocated to every child. This person completes regularly observations that are then used to inform the child’s planning around their individual needs and interests.
Key Person Assessments
The key person completes assessments on every child to identify any support that may be required. These assessments are shared with the parents who are encouraged to add their comments.
SEN Co-ordinator
We have a nursery SENCO (Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator) that has been trained to support the key person, child and families to ensure that the child’s individual needs are met.
Liaise with other professionals
The SENCO will liaise with other professionals (with the parents consent) such as Early Years Inclusion Officers, Speech and Language Therapists and Health Visitors to gain further advise in supporting each individual child. The SENCO and the key person will work collaboratively to ensure that these targets and strategies are implemented.
