SEND provision at Ashton Keynes Pre-School reflects the new Code of Practice and updated guidance regarding legal requirements surrounding our duty to provide for children with SEND under Part 3 of the Children and Families Act 2014. All staff understand and are continuously aware that children with additional needs are more vulnerable and safeguarding those children is of utmost priority.

We recognise that all children are entitled to a learning experience that respects diversity, enables participation, removes barriers and anticipates and considers a variety of learning needs and preferences. Our highly skilled practitioners pride themselves on their early identification of additional needs as well as their individual tailored intervention skills to assist a child to their full potential.

We work effectively with the local schools and settings to ensure a smooth and seamless transition supporting both your child and your family.
