Your first port of call would be to discuss any concerns that you have with your childs key worker.

The Keyworker is responsible for:

Planning activities and assessing your child’s progress

They ensure that any additional resources, support or adaptations to the curriculum enable all children to be included in the learning

If you have any further questions or concerns you can also look to speak with our SEN Co-ordinator who is responsible for the implemementation of our SEN Policies or the Nursery Group Manager Sue Cawthorne.

The SENco for each Nursery is listed below:-

We will always look to make our selves availble to discuss any concerns that you have regarding your child. When dropping off your child this is an opportunity for a brief conversation with your child’s key worker about day to day concerns
