To do this, we have involved specialists from Pen Green and the local speech and language therapists to provide an excellent professional development offer for our staff. This has translated into high quality teaching and a successful education offer for all our children.
“Additionally, we have worked closely with the wider team at BEST and the local Early Years Special Educational Needs Advisory Team to ensure our offer for our SEND pupils is comprehensive. Any child with an additional need is provided with a package of support which ensures they make rapid progress in their development.
“The developments we have made as a team have been tremendous and each individual has had a huge part to play in the Ofsted rating we have received. We are also very grateful for the strong working relationships we have with Langford Village Academy and for the ongoing support from our families, without whom none of this would have been possible.”
BEST Director of Education Alison Wilshaw said: “The teamwork of staff at Langford Nursery has been duly recognised in their latest Ofsted. The strengths and purposeful actions of all involved were spoken of highly in the full feedback session.
