Service description from provider

The playgroup is dedicated to providing a safe, happy, stimulating and interesting learning environment based on the Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum. The playgroup prides itself on treating the children, staff and carers with friendliness, care and courtesy. The parents and carers of our children take an active role in the day-to-day running of our playgroup, fostering a strong sense of community and making it possible for us to thrive.

If your child has SEND

Nurseries and playgroups must help all children who go to their settings, including those with special needs.

They do this by:

  • Having a SEND Policy. This explains how they help children with additional needs. You can find it on their website or ask staff for a copy.

  • Specialist Support: A team member called a SENCo (Special Educational Needs Coordinator) has training and experience to help children with special needs. They will work with you as the child's parent and if needed, other specialist services.

  • Staff Training makes sure staff know how to identify and help children with different needs.

  • Working with Health Visitors to review development, progress, and identify needs e.g. 27th Month Review.

  • Connecting with Children's Centres to get Early Help or MAT (Multi Agency Team) support if needed.

  • Help with Transitions from the Area SENCo when children with SEND move on to reception class or primary school,

  • How to access support from education and health specialist services. Your permission is needed before they can be involved.

Extra support funding for children with additional needs

To get extra help for children with special needs settings will know about:

  • Disability Access Fund (DAF). When and how to apply for this funding for eligible children.

  • Early Years Inclusion Funding. When it may be appropriate to apply for this funding for children with new or emerging needs. 

  • Education, Health, and Care Assessment (EHCNA). When to request an EHCNA. If a child with SEND needs more support that can be provided through the above an EHCNA may identify they need an Education, Health, and Care (EHC) Plan funded from the high needs funding block. EHC Plans are reviewed every six months for children in early years settings.

Staff in settings are there to support all children, including those with special needs. If you have questions, please ask to speak with the settings SENCo.

What to do if you have a complaint

If you have any complaint about the way the Playgroup is being run please contact the chair of the Management Committee in order to make your complaint known. The chair will then carry out an investigation into your complaint and will provide you with a written report on the findings of such an investigation. If your complaint can be resolved informally, then the chair will attempt to facilitate this. If you have overall concerns about the way in which the entire playgroup is operating then in certain circumstances you can complain to Ofsted to make your complaint known to them. Usually, however, Ofsted will require that you make your complaint known to the Management Committee of the playgroup before they will carry out any investigation themselves. Please consult the Ofsted website “How to make a complaint” section for further guidance.
If you have suggestions about how to improve the running of the playgroup, kindly also bring these to the chair’s attention who will then discuss these with the management committee and the play leader. We are always searching for ways to improve the playgroup and we welcome positive contributions in this regard.
