Special Educational Needs And Disabilities (SEND)
At Tarbiyah Nurseries
Supporting Every Child's Unique Journey
Overview:
At Tarbiyah we are committed to ensuring each child is included and supported at our setting. To do this to our full capability it is important to practice early identification and provide the support each child with SEND needs in order to develop academically.
At Tarbiyah we work to adhere to the EYFS framework to ensure each child receives the support they need.
What is SEND in the EYFS?
Definition:
SEND refers to any learning difficulties or disabilities that affect a child’s ability to learn and develop in the early years. It involves identifying and supporting children who need extra help to reach their full potential within a nursery or early years setting.
Role of the Nursery:
At our setting we use multiple assessments and tracking tools to keep up to date with our children’s developments. We use the Wellcomm
system to assess and track a child’s speech, cognition and learning development on a regular basis and ensure that children are getting the support needed to achieve their milestones.
Children are also observed regularly by staff as well as the SenCo to ensure they have all the support they need to flourish in the right
environment and with the right tools and learning techniques.
For children with SEND, learning looks different on all fronts. We believe in following the child’s lead and adapting activities and sessions to be inclusive of all physical, emotional, social, mental, sensory, and cognitive adaptations. To ensure our children are getting all the support
they need we have adopted a multi-agency approach and work closely with other professionals, like speech & language therapists, and parents in order to help your child achieve their developmental milestones and get them ready for school.
