How does the setting identify children with additional needs or SEND?
On admission I will ask details about your child and will assess him/her over the next few weeks to form a baseline assessment. I will talk to you regularly about your chids achievements and any concerns you or I may have concerning their development and we can decide how we can work together to support them.
I complete a progress check at age 2 for you to share with your health visitor ,this can also help to identify any additional needs .
