Special Needs Caters for children with special needs.
Ashby nursery is open 8am – 5.30pm, 51 weeks of the year offering full day care and flexible sessional care. We aim to provide quality and affordable childcare, within a safe and secure environment to enable all children to learn and develop, ensuring that each child reaches their full potential. We are an inclusive setting and follow SEND code of practice, the equality act and the EYFS which are incorporated into our policies and procedures which are reviewed and updated on an annual basis. The nursery is a purpose built building situated within a Children’s Centre; we have a large outdoor area and a smaller outdoor sensory area which offer an exciting space, with a variety of experiences to explore and allow easy access to the “free-flow” provision. Staff within the setting are very welcoming and experienced, with a strong commitment to help the children in their care to learn. We have a named SENCO Jayne Harris who supports staff when working with children with additional needs and disabilities and their families; OFSTED commented that “the manager and staff have developed extremely effective partnerships with other agencies and professionals. Together they provide targeted support for disabled children and those with special educational needs and their families”. The SENCO has a wealth of experience and is pro-active in completing referrals for Speech & Language, Early Help, Education Psychologist and EHC assessments.
