Early Years Local Offer response

Learning and development

Systems and strategies we have in place to identify children that may require additional support

When children first start with us, we observe them and complete their 2 year checks or their baseline assessments (dependant on their age). We would discuss any concerns with the child(s) parents. Some children that attend already have Early Support and/or outside professionals already involved.

How we identify and support children's learning and development needs

We work in partnership with the child(s) parent(s) and discuss how best to move their child on to the next developmental level, either between us or having to involve outside agencies ie speech therapist, physiotherapist etc.

Links we have to other agencies

We have very good links with the Area SENCO, Speech and language therapist and the Early Years Autism Worker. They attend our setting (plus other professionals) as and when needed.

How we support children transferring to school

We are now part of Pelynt Primary School and have a good transition set up in the Summer Term. We also feed into other local primary schools, which the key person for the child attending will contact the relevant primary school and will support the child in the transition.

Welfare

Specialist skills or training our staff have

The manager is NVQ4 Children's Care, Learning and Development qualified. The Deputy Manager is Level 3. W have two other qualified members of staff. The SENCO attends SENCO network meetings throughout the year to keep up-to-date with the latest changes. All staff members have undergone visual training. We have a designated behaviour person who updates their training regularly.

Support we offer regarding children's health and well-being

We offer information to the parents and children regarding healthy eating and healthy living. We encourage health professionals (such as the dentist) to come in to speak with the children and hand out information to parents.

Ways we inform parents about how their child is being supported

We discuss with the parents on a regular basis regarding their children's learning and development within the pre-school. We have an open-door policy so parent(s) are able to come in at anytime to see their child(s) learning journey. We also offer stay and play sessions so the parent(s) can stay for a longer period of time with the child(s) key person to discuss their child(ren).

Our complaints policy

Our complaints policy is on the notice board. It is also available to view on our website www.pelyntpreschool.org.uk

Access

Alterations we have made to make our building accessible

Our building is purpose built and was made suitable for all to access.

Facilities we have for personal care

We have purpose made toilets for the children. We have a nappy changing mat in the toilet area to encourage toilet training. We have an accessible toilet in the main entrance.

Specialist resources we have

We have a range of sensory toys that all children can have access to.

How we include all children in activities, such as trips

All trips are parental responsibility. We do usually have a staff member available on request for extra support if needed.
