The nursery has a duty to ensure that all our children have equal access to the curriculum and are supported as appropriate to meet their individual needs. This covers not only the content of the learning experiences and teaching strategies but also minor adaptations to the physical environment of our building to address the needs of pupils with physical or sensory impairments, including the relocation of playrooms to the ground floor where feasible.
We also need to ensure that parents have equal access to information about their children. This could involve, for example, relocating the venue for parents meetings to facilitate physical access at parents’ evenings or individual meetings; provision of an interpreter for the deaf or agreeing a telephone contact system to provide direct feedback to parents.
Physical access
Yellow stair treads and blinds in playrooms have been installed to assist visually impaired people.
There is a ramp at the nursery entrance. There are stairs within the building and we have no lift available.
