Supporting children with special educational needs

At Bunyan Preschool, we provide an environment where all children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are supported to reach their full potential. We are committed to the principle that “Every Child Matters.”

​

Early identification of additional needs is a priority. We put early intervention plans in place to ensure children receive the help and support they need as soon as possible. The sooner children get this support, the sooner they are able to make progress.

We recognise that children learn at different rates and in different ways. Our practitioners carefully organise the learning environment, activities, and materials to suit each child, adapting the curriculum to meet their needs. Children with SEND access the EYFS curriculum through a step-by-step, graduated approach tailored to their development.

 

Our SEND Support Includes:

• Lift-off to Language – to support communication and language skills

• Small group activities – to support personal and social development

• Attention Autism activities – to develop attention skills

 

Our Dedicated Team

Bunyan Preschool has a dedicated SENDCO, Mrs Mihaela Yasir, who works closely with support staff and parents. We hold regular meetings with parents, valuing their input and ensuring they are fully involved in their child’s learning and development.
