Special Educational Needs and Disabilities

At Sunflowers Pre-School we aim to provide high quality provision for all children. If you have any concerns about any aspect of your child's learning or development please discuss these with your child's key worker initially, Tracey Corner- Deputy Manager or Louisa Cowler- Manager. Tracey Corner is also our special education needs co-ordinator so can advise on any next steps or support needed for your child. For any current health concerns please speak to your GP or Health Visitor.

As children are developing their language and communication skills sometimes concerns can arise. We can offer advice on Speech and Language drop in clinics and any other organisation that we feel may need to support you and your child. We will then fully support any advice they have and keep you fully updated on their progress.

A 'WELLCOMM' screening tool is used in a fun way to gain awareness of whether your child is using and understanding language appropriately for their chronological age.

We will aim to put in place any enhancements to the provision for any child that may need them to be able to fully access the environment. 

All children are welcome and we aim to create an inclusive atmosphere at Sunflowers. Working in partnership with parents during the admission and settling in period will aid us in any ways we can create this environment for each individual child.

Please search for our 'Local Offer' on the Hertfordshire directory for more information on our approach to early support.
