Our Early Years provision is shaped by high levels of SEND, disadvantage and mobility, underpinned by a strong commitment to inclusion, early identification and aspirational outcomes for every child.<\/p>\n<p>Our Reception practice is particularly strong in early language development, EAL provision, SEND inclusion, phonics and mathematical mastery. We have created a language-rich environment where evidence-informed approaches such as SHREC, sustained shared thinking, Blanks Levels, WellComm, Word Aware, Talk through Stories and Colourful Semantics support communication, vocabulary development and oracy. Purposeful play, a plan-do-review approach and carefully sequenced continuous provision promote independence, metacognition and deep learning.<\/p>\n<p>Visitors to our setting can see effective strategies for supporting multilingual learners, inclusive SEND practice, high-quality adult-child interactions, and the integration of mathematical thinking throughout provision. Schools engaging with our network can learn from our approaches to language acquisition, curriculum design, parental engagement and targeted intervention.<\/p>\n<p>We are committed to collaborative improvement and the sharing of effective practice.
