Here at Whitecross Nursery School we ensure that every pupil and their family is welcomed, valued and supported to achieve their full potential, regardless of their background, need or starting point.

Key Elements of our inclusive Practice

• Physical Environment: Ensuring we have wide doors, no steps in and out of the garden, the star room where children can go to self-regulate and ensuring the learning environment is accessible to all.  

• Adaptive Curriculum: Differentiating activities, using visual communication cards, a range of adaptable resources.

• Representation & Culture: Featuring diverse books, toys, and resources that reflect various family structures, languages, and abilities, so all children see themselves represented.

• Family & Specialist Partnerships: Working closely with parents, carers, and external professionals (such as speech or occupational therapists) to tailor individual support.

• Staff Training: Training practitioners in anti-bias education, disability awareness, and specific conditions like autism, ADHD, or speech delays.
